______________________________________ Troubleshooting A-15
Macintosh Environment Checkup
For printing problems not related to the quality of the output, the
following checklist may provide a solution.
• Make sure all LocalTalk cabling and transformer boxes are
connected correctly. If there are any open sockets, close them
with terminating resistors. See “Connecting in a Macintosh
Environment” in chapter 2.
• Make sure the correct Adobe PostScript print driver icon, your
printer, and the AppleTalk button are selected in the Chooser.
• Make sure the correct Adobe PostScript print driver and your
printer’s PPD are in your System Folder.
• Make sure you install screen fonts to match the printer fonts you
use.
• If you have an Ethernet setup, make sure all Ethernet cabling is
connected correctly. See your network documentation for details.
• If you have an Ethernet setup and a system version before 7.5 ,
open the Control Panel, click Network, and make sure EtherTalk
is selected. For System 7.5 and later, select Ethernet from the
AppleTalk control panel.
PC Environment Checkup
For printing problems not related to the quality of the output, the
following checklist may provide a solution.
• Make sure your application, printer, and host communications
settings all match. You can check and change printer settings
through the front panel (see “The Configuration Menu Structure”
in chapter 5). See your application and host documentation for
checking and changing those respective settings.
• Try sending an end-of-job marker using the XANTÉ Utilities D.PS
file. If the previous job lacked this marker, the printer expects more
data and will not print until it receives the end-of-job. See chapter 4,
“PC Setup,” for details.
