Printer prints blank pages | Lexmark Version 3.0 manual

Printer prints blank pages

Symptom: MASTERFORM prints out extra blank pages.

Cause: Your margin settings are set too high.

If your margin settings are higher than the recom- mended settings (see page 107), the program may print additional blank pages.

Resolution/Workaround: To change your margin settings, complete all package information in the form-fill wizard as you would for generating a new package. When you arrive at the print preview, select Page Setup from the file menu.

After you have changed all four margins to the recommended settings listed on page 107, go back into Page Setup again under the file menu to verify that the program saved your changes.

If your margins revert from what you changed them to, your printer driver may not support a margin setting small enough. To correct this problem, you can try installing an alternative driver by following the directions listed below:

1.Double-click the Add Printer icon in the Printers window

2.Follow the instructions in the Add Printer wizard. Choose HP from the list of printer manufacturers and select the HP LaserJet III driver from the list.

3.When done, select the correct printer driver in MasterForm from clicking on the Page tab from the Page Setup screen in MasterForm. Click on Use Specific Printer, and click the Printer button to select your HP LaserJet III driver from the list, then click on the Margins tab again to change margins back to the recommended settings on each side by following the directions above.

Laser forms are not lining up properly

Symptom: When you print on the UPS laser shipping form, the information does not line up properly.

Cause: Your margins may not be set properly, and/or the fields on the form may be adjusted to print well on your printer.

Resolution/Workaround: For information on how to adjust the margins, see the chapter entitled Setting the Margins.

To adjust specific fields on the form, you will need to use the Nudge tool. You can find instructions on how to use the Nudge tool in the section titled Moving fields on the form: use the Nudge tool.
