lYour printer driver settings can override any settings from the printer menu or printer front panel.

Before sending a file to the printer, many word processors send either an “initialisation string” or an I-Primesignal to the printer.

The initialisation string contains codes that override the panel and menu settings. To change your printer to ignore the reset code, enter the Menu Mode, go to the Set-Upgroup and change the setting for Reset Inhibit to YES.

The I-Prime signal will automatically override any front panel settings you have made. To eliminate this problem, enter the Menu Mode, go to the Parallel Interface group and change the setting for I-Primeto Invalid.

For more information on changing menu settings, see “Changing the Menu Settings” in chapter 3.

Problem

Nothing happens when I turn ON the printer.

Solution

Check the power cord connection to the outlet and to the printer. If you are using a power strip, make sure it is turned ON, and that the fuse hasn’t blown or that the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped.

Problem

The printer does not print when the computer sends data.

Solutions

1.Is the SEL light on? If not, press the SEL key.

2.Check that the interface cable is securely connected to both the printer and the computer.

3.If you have the optional serial interface board installed, check to be sure that it is firmly seated in the printer.
