Launching the File Management Utility
Once the File Management Utility is installed on your PC, you can
launch it by selecting the File Management Utility shortcut or icon (it
will then attempt to connect with your computer).
Communication Status
The File Management Utility’s Main Menu’s screen shows the
communication status between the PC and printer:
Communication Successful
If the Communication Successful message displays, you will be able to
work with the File Management Utility.
Communication Failed
If the Communication Failed message displays, you will need to
manually establish communication by completing the following steps:
1. Check the Port setting to be sure it matches the Printer to which it
is connected.
2. Click the Configure Port button to verify the selected Port’s
settings. This button directs you to the Port Configuration Tab in the
Windows operating system.
3. Click the Test Connection button after all communication
selections are verified, making sure the printer is attached to
establish communication.
Note: You may have to repeat this process if the Port or Configure Port
selections are incorrect.
