Verifying the Printer and Host Connections

Verifying printing to a workstation using the Error Handler utility

If the workstation host does not print to the printer, download the Advanced Error
Handler utility to the printer.

Locate the ADVEHAND.PS file in the PrinterUtility diskette.

Copy the file ADVEHAND.PS to the workstation's hard disk or use the file
from the diskette.

Make sure that the printer port is configured to receive PostScript, then send
the file to the printer.

This loads the error handling utility into the printer's memory where it remains until the
printer is turned off. Send a print file to the printer as explained in the previous
procedure. If an error occurs, it will print a page listing the error.
