SOLVING PROBLEMS

The printer prints a page and then stops

The display reads PAPER SIZE ERROR and the indicator blinks

You have selected the wrong paper size with your application software.

You may be trying to use a paper size that your printer cannot handle. Check your fax machine’s specifications to see what paper sizes it can handle.

The P-SIZE setting may not match your paper size. Either:

If the indicator is out, press to clear the error. Then change the P-SIZE setting

(see page 27) if necessary.

If the indicator is on, check the current P-SIZE setting (see page 27) and put some paper of the same size in the cassette. If the P-SIZE setting is incorrect, press to reset the printer, then change the P-SIZE setting.

Caution: When you reset the printer, any remaining data that was sent from the computer will be lost.

If you continue to print using paper that is smaller than the paper size set with your software, toner may accumulate inside the machine and dam - age the master unit. Make sure that your software and P-SIZE settings match the paper size in the cassette. If AUTO CONT is on, a paper size error is detected but cleared automatically and printing continues. There - fore, to avoid damage to your printer, keep AUTO CONT set to OFF (see page 41).

PROBLEMS WITH GRAPHICS

Graphic images do not print

After changing the emulation mode, you cannot print graphics

You may not have the correct printer driver installed. Set up your software package to match your printer’s current emulation mode.

You cannot print graphics using the serial channel

The WORD LENGTH setting may not be correct (see page 36).When printing graph - ics, this setting should be at 8.

When printing a mix of text and graphics, the page does not print or is only par- tially printed. The display may also show SET FULL PRINT

Change the FULL PRINT setting (see page 29).

Your printer may not have enough memory. Simplify the page or install additional memory (see page 10). To clear the error, press .
