Problem The image is upside down. Point to check Are you using a type of paper (tab paper, punch paper, etc.) that can only be loaded in a fixed orientation? Is the correct binding position selected for two-sided printing? Many nonsense Is your computer or the machine in an characters are printed. unstable state? Solution When the image size and paper size are the same but the orientations are different, the orientation of the image is automatically rotated to match the paper. However, when the paper can only be loaded in a fixed orientation, this may result in the image being printed upside down. In this event, rotate the image 180 degrees before printing. For the 180 degrees rotate setting, see "ROTATING THE PRINT IMAGE 180 DEGREES (Rotate 180 degrees)" (page 38). When two-sided printing is performed, every other page is printed upside down when tablet binding is selected for the binding position. Be sure to set the appropriate binding position. For two-sided printing and booklet-style and tablet-style bindings, see "TWO-SIDED PRINTING" (page 27). If little free space remains in the memory or hard drive of your computer, or many jobs have been spooled on the machine and it has little free memory remaining, printed text may turn into nonsense characters. In this situation, cancel printing, restart your computer and the machine, and try printing again. To cancel printing Windows: Double-click the printer icon that appears at the lower right of the task bar and click "Cancel All Documents" (or "Purge Print Documents") in the [Printer] menu. Macintosh: Double-click the name of the machine in the printer list, select the job that you wish to delete, and delete it. (In Mac OS 9, double-click the printer icon on the desktop, select the print job that you wish to delete, and delete it.) At the machine: See "CANCELING A PRINT JOB" (page 70). If nonsense characters are still printed after restarting, ask your administrator to lengthen the timeout setting of "I/O Timeout" in the system settings (administrator). ➞ System Settings (Administrator) > "Printer Settings" > "Interface Settings" > "I/O Timeout" * If nonsense characters are still printed after taking the above measures, remove and then reinstall the printer driver. 80
