Microsoft Word Graphics
If a Word document contains a graphic object with a white background, and the background
prints as black instead of white when you print the document using the PCL printer driver,
select the object in Word and change the background from No Fill to White.
Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 on Windows 2000
When you print from PowerPoint 2003 on Windows 2000, you might see repeated images or
images that are reduced in one dimension in the printed output. The output prints correctly if
you print from Windows XP or from PowerPoint 2000.
Printing a job with Z-Fold/C-Fold from Microsoft Word
When you print a job with Z-Fold/C-Fold from Word, you must select an SEF (“short edge
feed”) page size in Page Setup.
Printing N-up Layout jobs from Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Word
When you print a job with the N-up Layout print option from Acrobat or Word, the page
sizes are maintained but some pages may print blank or surrounded only by a line.
If you print a job with the N-up Layout option from Acrobat, clear the Choose Paper Source
by PDF page size check box. The N-up job prints correctly, but the page sizes are not
maintained.
Quark XPress Scaling causes images to disappear
The scaling option in Quark XPress 4.1 and 5.x likely causes images to disappear or “drop
out” of the file. Furthermore, the scaling option in Quark XPress may not produce the same
dimensions as the scaling option set in the Fiery Color Server printer driver. This defect is
triggered when you combine scaling with certain page sizes (for example, SRA3 paper).
To work around this problem, change the centering option in Quark XPress to Left edge and
set the scaling percentage in Quark XPress, leaving the Fiery Color Server at 100%, or vice
versa. If viable, you may also try changing the page size.
Quark XPress v5.0 and page layout
When using Quark XPress v5.0, you cannot use the page layout (N-up Layout) option in the
Windows (PS and PCL) printer drivers. This is a limitation of the application’s PostScript
driver. Currently, there is no workaround.
Visio 2003 and PCL printer driver
If you print from Visio 2003 using the PCL printer driver, select “Always use host fonts” on
the Fonts tab of the printer driver.
