SOLVING PROBLEMS

PRINTING PROBLEMS

The printer does not print, or stops printing

The

 

 

(on-line/off-line) indicator is on, but nothing is printed

 

 

 

Check that both ends of the cable from the computer to the printer are plugged in se - curely.

Check that you are using the correct type of cable to meet the specifications of your

computer and your printer.

You may not have selected the correct I/F CONFIG settings (see page 35). See your computer manual for the correct settings for your computer.

The software may not be installed for your printer correctly. Use the program’s setup

or install procedure to check the printer settings on your computer’s display. Also, make sure that your printer’s emulation mode is set up correctly (see page 16).

If the Night Timer feature on the fax machine is switched on, nothing can be printed.

To release the Night Timer, press the Function key twice. Then you can print. Note that the Night Timer is not reinstated after the end of printing.

The printout is not what you expected

The font you selected with software commands cannot be printed

The correct orientation (portrait or landscape) may not have been selected. Make sure that the orientation matches the selected font.

The font that you selected with your software package may not be available. Check that you have installed the correct font card or cartridge.

Characters not belonging to the symbol set are being printed

The expected symbol may not be available in the printer. Be sure that you have in - stalled the correct font card or cartridge.

The correct symbol set may not have been selected. Specify the desired symbol set (containing international characters and symbols) with your software, or use a Selec - type procedure (see SYMSET on page B- 7, and COUNTRY and CGTABLE on page C-4). The symbol sets that are available depend o n the emulation mode that you have selected.
