Printer Setup and Operation

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.

7.Select the desired paper size by pressing Print Setup, More, Page Size, then choose the appropriate page size for which your printer is configured. This setting will remain unchanged with Preset or Power Cycle.

The factory default page size is Letter. The page size will be reset to Letter if System,

More, Restore Sys Defaults is executed.

Testing Printer Operation

When you have completed the analyzer’s printer setup, press Print Setup, then press Print on the front panel. If the printer is ready and the printer setup was successful, a printout of the analyzer display will be printed. If the printer is not ready, the message Printer Timeout will appear on the analyzer display. Printer Timeout will remain on the display until the printer is ready or until you press ESC to cancel the printout request.

NOTE	There may be some small discrepancies in the color mapping of the analyzer
	display to your color printer. Due to differences in display and printer
	technologies, the default display colors do not map exactly to the printer
	colors. For example trace 1 is yellow on your analyzer display while it maps to
	green on your printer.
