• Check that you're using a proper cable or cable adapter. If an infrared printer doesn't print • If you're printing to an infrared printer, make sure its port is set to LPT3 (not LPT1). Check the printer's settings. You can also try using COM4 instead. • Start Infrared Monitor before you print. • In Windows Help, use the Print Troubleshooter. • For infrared printing from an MS-DOS program, run the program in an MS-DOS window instead of in MS-DOS mode. • Make sure the infrared light path is not blocked. • Make sure Windows is running-infrared printing is supported only while Windows is running. • Make sure the infrared printer is IrDA compatible. • Make sure you have not disabled IrDA support on your OmniBook. • If you have a PC card that uses interrupt 3, try removing it before printing. If a printer stops when you turn off the OmniBook • If the ac adapter is connected, don't turn off the OmniBook until the job is finished printing. When you turn off the OmniBook while the ac adapter is connected, it sends a reset signal to the printer. (If you're not using the ac adapter, no reset signal is sent.) If the left edge of printed output is missing • If the printer you're using is a 600-dpi (dots per inch) printer, try selecting a compatible printer driver for a 300-dpi printer. For example, for a 600-dpi HP LaserJet printer, try using the HP LaserJet IIIsi driver (300-dpi). Certain applications may not work properly with 600-dpi printers. Memory Problems If a message says you're out of memory To find out how much memory is in your OmniBook, run the System Configuration Utility. • In Windows Help, use the memory troubleshooter. • If you're having memory problems running MS-DOS programs, in Windows Help use the MS-DOS troubleshooter. Pointing Device and Mouse Problems If the pointer is difficult to control • Adjust the pointer settings using the Mouse icon in Control Panel. If the pointing device doesn't work • Make sure you don't have an external mouse connected to the OmniBook. 59
