For network connections, make sure of the type of cable that is to be used for the connection environment.
For direct connection of one host and one printer
→
Use a cross cable (10Base-T)
For connection of several hosts and one printer through a hub
→
Use a straight cable (10Base-T)
Reference: This does not apply when 10Base-2 is used.
Confirm:
Does the data LED on the panel light up when printing data have been sent from the application (driver)?

It is possible that printing data are not being sent from the OS and driver. Advise contact with the computer manufac-
ture and the application/driver manufacturer.
Yes:

Note that, depending on the OS settings, printing data may be collected in a device called the spooler before
transmission and it may take a little time for the data to be transmitted to the printer.

Procedure:
Investigate the current printer connection environment and report a printout of the setting details, together with printing data
that will enable the symptoms to be verified, to your local dealer using the prescribed format.
•
For how to take a print of the setting details, refer to "Control panel" in the Operation Manual.
•
Data for printing should be able to be analysed by the printer. If it can not be dumped to a file by CAD and the dri-
ver, a data dump list from a comparatively simple diagram will be satisfactory. (However, the data should enable
the symptoms to be verified.)
•
Confirm network setup the printer connection environment such as host computer, application, type of driver,
cable length, switching device present or not, peripheral devices (Hub, etc.), IP address, AppleTalk, etc.
❈
The option board accessory setup utilities and the PING command are available for checking the IP address and connections. Try using
them to check the connections.
❈
If the above procedures do not improve the symptoms, the main unit has probably developed a fault for some reason.
