Data transfer
Printer does not generate a print
■
Make sure that your printer is connected to the port to which you are sending
the file.
■
If you are printing over a network, determine whether the problem comes
from the network. Try connecting the printer directly to your computer and
send the file again.
Parallel printing doesn’t work
■
Try using another parallel cable. Check that it is securely connected.
Application software
Isolating a software problem
■
Try printing the “Demo Plot” on the Utilities disk. If this prints, the printer’s
health is probably good.
■
Try printing a simple file from your application or from another application.
If this prints correctly, the problem may be with your use of software.
