Troubleshooting Solving problems with print position or content If the output is distorted or unintelligible There is a possible explanation if the serial interface is in use: If you are using a serial interface between the printer and your computer, make sure the printer's serial interface settings match the settings and requirements of your software and hardware. To check or change the printer's settings, use the Setup Sheet. If the printer has drawn a different print from the one you were expecting ?! You may have pressed Reprint (giving you a copy of the last print) or may have accidentally initiated one of the printer's internal prints. (For a summary of these prints and how to print them, see Chapter 5.) If pen settings seem to have no effect ! You may have changed them in the Setup Sheet but forgotten to fill in the oval called "Use settings from tables below". You may expect the software-driven pen settings but the Setup Sheet is set to "Use settings from tables below". TROUBLE- 9 SHOOTING 9-11
