• Make sure you have not disabled IrDA support on your OmniBook. If the parallel printer doesn't print • Check that you're using a standard parallel printer cable. • If you can print from another application, check the current application. The application itself may be at fault. If the 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, see "To find the system software and memory size." • Exit Windows, then type win to restart Windows.
