Solving printer communication problems
The printer and the computer cannot exchange data. You must establish bidirectional communication between the
printer and the computer. For more information, see “Bidirectional communication is not established” on
page 222.
Understanding Warning levels
•
A green check indicates system requirements were met.
•
A yellow question mark indicates system requirements were not met. Most major functions will work, but you
may experience some performance impact.
•
A red question mark indicates system requirements were not met. Most major functions may not work.
•

For proper installation, make sure the computer supports all system requirements. System requirements are located
