When You Cannot Print This section describes how to solve printing problems. Cannot print from a TCP/IP network. Problem 1: The LAN port and network cable are not connected correctly. Solution: Make sure that the correct type of cable is used to connect the printer to the network. Cycle the printer off and on then try again. (Æ Setup Guide) Problem 2: The TCP/IP network is not set correctly. Solution: Make sure that the Frame Type and IP Address are set correctly. If you are setting an IP address for use with DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP, make sure that DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP is operating. Problem 3: The computer settings on the computer used for printing are not set correctly. Solution: Check the following points: • Make sure that the correct printer driver has been installed. In order to perform print jobs with Windows, the correct printer driver and the LPR port must be installed for each operating system. (Æ Setup Guide) • Make sure that correct printer port (print output destination) has been selected for the printer to be used for printing. In the Control Panel open the printer folder and then check the output destination. • Make sure that the setting to finish printing faster has been selected for Spool Setting. In the Control Panel, open the Printer folder and then check Spool Setting with the Properties command in the File menu. Problem 4: The print file name is too long. Solution: Normally, LPR (with Windows NT: Microsoft TCP/IP printing) sends a job file name, created from the name of the application software used for printing or the name of printed file. However, if the length of this job name exceeds 255 bytes, the job cannot be sent normally. To correct this, shorten the file name of the file selected for printing. When You Cannot Print 6-3

Setup Guide)
Problem 2:
The TCP/IP network is not set correctly.
Solution:
Make sure that the Frame Type and IP Address are set correctly. If you are
setting an IP address for use with DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP, make sure
that DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP is operating.
Problem 3:
The computer settings on the computer used for printing are not set
correctly.
Solution:
Check the following points:
Make sure that the correct printer driver has been installed. In order to
perform print jobs with Windows, the correct printer driver and the LPR
port must be installed for each operating system. (

Setup Guide)
Make sure that correct printer port (print output destination) has been
selected for the printer to be used for printing. In the Control Panel open
the printer folder and then check the output destination.

Spool Setting. In the Control Panel, open the Printer folder and then
check Spool Setting with the Properties command in the File menu.
Problem 4:

Normally, LPR (with Windows NT: Microsoft TCP/IP printing) sends a
job file name, created from the name of the application software used for
printing or the name of printed file. However, if the length of this job name
exceeds 255 bytes, the job cannot be sent normally. To correct this, shorten
the file name of the file selected for printing.
