Problem Option does not operate correctly after it is installed. Action Tri-Port interface: Make sure the Tri-Port interface card is securely connected to the printer system board. For Macintosh users: • Make sure the host computer is set to LocalTalk. • If you are using a phone wire connection, a terminator plug must be used. Infrared adapter: If infrared communication stops or does not occur, check the following: • Communication distance: The distance between the two infrared ports should be 1 meters (39 in.) or less. If communication does not occur between ports, move the ports closer together. • Make sure both ports are stable. • Make sure the computer and the printer are on a level surface. • Make sure the angle of communication between the two infrared ports is within 15 degrees of either side of an imaginary line drawn between the two infrared ports. • Make sure there is no bright light, such as direct sunshine, interfering with communication. • Make sure no objects are placed between the two infrared ports. USB/Parallel interface: • Make sure the USB/Parallel interface card is securely connected to the printer system board. • Make sure you are using the correct cable and that it is securely connected.

correctly after it is installed.
Tri-Port interface:
Make sure the Tri-Port interface card is securely connected to the printer system board.
For Macintosh users:
•
Make sure the host computer is set to LocalTalk.
•
If you are using a phone wire connection, a terminator plug must be used.
Infrared adapter:
If infrared communication stops or does not occur, check the following:
•
Communication distance: The distance between the two infrared ports should be 1 meters (39 in.) or less. If
communication does not occur between ports, move the ports closer together.
•
Make sure both ports are stable.
•
Make sure the computer and the printer are on a level surface.
•
Make sure the angle of communication between the two infrared ports is within 15 degrees of either side of an
imaginary line drawn between the two infrared ports.
•
Make sure there is no bright light, such as direct sunshine, interfering with communication.
•
Make sure no objects are placed between the two infrared ports.
USB/Parallel interface:
•
Make sure the USB/Parallel interface card is securely connected to the printer system board.
•
