Network printer keeps restarting | Apple 145B specification

The network printer keeps restarting.

mSomeone on the network may be using a different version of the printer software. Everyone connected to a network should use the same printer software version. Consult the network administrator for more information.

Nothing happens, or you see an error message, when you try to print.

mThe printer may not be turned on. Make sure it is turned on and warmed up.

mThe printer may be out of paper or have some other problem. Check the printer status lights and any messages on your screen.

mIf an error message states that the printer could not print your document, turn the printer off for at least 10 seconds. Then turn it on again, wait for it to warm up, and try to print again.

Your documents are printed with the wrong fonts.

mThe printer may not have your fonts in its memory and is substituting other fonts. You may be able to add the necessary fonts to your printer (see Chapter 11), or print on a different printer that has the fonts you want. If you have a LaserWriter, you can turn off Font Substitution in the Page Setup dialog box.

See Chapter 11 for general information about printing documents. See the printer manual for more information about your printer’s features or problems with the printed output.
