Printer Setup and Operation

6.Press Printer Type to access the Printer Type menu keys. Press Auto to make the analyzer attempt to identify the connected printer. When you press Auto, the analyzer will respond in one of the three following ways:

The Print Setup menu will be displayed with the Auto key selected and no new message will be displayed in the display status line. This indicates that the analyzer has successfully identified the connected printer and no further setup is required. As long as Auto remains selected in the Printer Type menu, the analyzer will attempt to identify the printer when the front panel Print key is pressed.

The Print Setup menu will be displayed with the Custom key selected and one of the following diagnostic messages will be displayed in the display status line:

Unknown printer, Define Custom to set up printer

No printer response, Define Custom to set up printer

Invalid printer response, Define Custom to set up printer

This indicates that the analyzer was unable to automatically identify the connected printer, and Custom has been selected in the Printer Type menu. Press Print Setup, Define Custom to select specific printer characteristics such as the printer language (PCL3 or PCL5) and color printing capability. Once you have set these characteristics to match those of your connected printer, the printer setup process is complete. As long as Custom remains selected in the Printer Type menu, the analyzer will not attempt to automatically identify the connected printer when the front panel Print key is pressed.

The Print Setup menu will be displayed with the None key selected and the following message will appear in the display status line:

Unsupported printer, Printer Type set to None

This indicates that the analyzer has successfully identified the connected printer, but the printer is not supported by the analyzer. As long as None is selected in the Printer Type menu, the analyzer will respond to any print command by displaying the message Printer Type is None in the display status line.
