SOFTWARE PROBLEMS 4.11.2 PRINTER DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY 2 Description: After receiving the print command there is either no response or the print speed is slower than normal. Incorrect machine set-up and printer malfunction are the causes of this condition. Description Not enough free hard disk space to accommodate temporary work files created during printing. Printer error occurs even if there is enough space in the hard disk. Parallel port related problems in the CMOS set-up. System needs to reboot to print. Solution 'Insufficient Printer Memory' message means there is a hard disk space problem, rather than a printer RAM problem. In this condition, provide more space on the hard disk with the disk utilities program. Ensure that the connection between the cable and printer port is correct. Ensure that the port settings in CMOS are correct, if you use the parallel port. Select ECP for the printer port. SPP and normal modes support 8-bit data transfer. ECP mode supports 12-bit data transfer. The cable of printer driver may be defective if regular fonts do not get printed. At this time turn off the PC and reboot the system. If the problem persists, double click the printer icon in "My Computer". Replace the cable if the regular fonts are still not printed. B273 4-44 SM

Description:
After receiving the print command there is either no response or the
print speed is slower than normal. Incorrect machine set-up and printer malfunction
are the causes of this condition.
Description
Solution
Not enough free hard disk space to
accommodate temporary work files created
during printing.
‘Insufficient Printer Memory’ message means
there is a hard disk space problem, rather
than a printer RAM problem. In this condition,
provide more space on the hard disk with the
disk utilities program.
Printer error occurs even if there is enough
space in the hard disk.
Ensure that the connection between the cable
and printer port is correct. Ensure that the port
settings in CMOS are correct, if you use the
parallel port.
Parallel port related problems in the CMOS
set-up.
Select ECP for the printer port. SPP and
normal modes support 8-bit data transfer.
ECP mode supports 12-bit data transfer.
System needs to reboot to print.
The cable of printer driver may be defective if
regular fonts do not get printed. At this time
turn off the PC and reboot the system. If the
problem persists, double click the printer icon
in “My Computer”. Replace the cable if the
regular fonts are still not printed.
