Option does not
operate correctly
after it is installed. Tri-Port Option: Check to make sure the Tri-Port
Interface option card is securely connected to the
printer system board. See “Tri-Port Interface Option
Card” on page 234 for more information.
For Macintosh users:
• Make sure the host computer is set to LocalTalk.
• If you are using a phone wire connection, a
terminator plug must be used.
Infrared Adapter: If infrared communication stops or
does not occur, check the following:
• Communication distance: The distance between the
two infrared ports should be 3 meters (10 ft.) or less.
If communication does not occur between ports,
move the ports closer together.
• Make sure both ports are stable. Make sure the
computer is on a level surface.
• Make sure the angle of communication between the
two infrared ports is within 15 degrees of either side
of an imaginary line drawn between the two infrared
ports.
• Make sure there is no bright light, such as direct
sunshine, interfering with communication.
• Make sure no objects are placed between the two
infrared ports.
