Troubleshooting

6-13

Your printer icon doesn’t appear in the Chooser (Macintosh).

The “SC 850AT cannot be used” message appears (Macintosh

)

.

Fixing Paper Problems

To avoid most paper handling problems, do the following:

◗

Use smooth, high-quality media designed for ink jet 
printers that meets the media specifications in Appendix C.

◗

Follow all loading and handling instructions included with 
the media.

◗

Load the media with the printable side face up as described 
in the Setup Guide and in Chapter 2.

If you have any paper problems, check here for solutions.

Possible cause

Solution

Your Macintosh has 
extension conflicts. See 
also “Solving Network 
Problems” on page 7-1 of 
your Administrator’s Guide.

Disable Quick Draw GX in the Extensions Manager. Make sure 
EPSON Monitor3 and SC 850AT are enabled, and then restart your 
Macintosh.

Possible cause

Solutions

The printer software has 
been corrupted.

Remove and reinstall the printer software as described on 
page 6-18. Then, in the Extensions Manager, disable Quick Draw 
GX, enable EPSON Monitor3 and SC 850AT, and restart your 
Macintosh.
