Troubleshooting Tips
Use these tips to help resolve problems with the printer:
• Make sure all cables are correctly connected.
• Perform a testprint. For help, see “Performing a Testprint” on
page 32 . Make sure that the settings on the test page match the
intended settings for your printer.
• Test communications by sending a command to the serial port.
• Check the communications port (such as USB, serial, or parallel)
you are using to connect your printer to your PC. Make sure the
port you are using is not being used by another application.
• Try performing an auto adjust in Autosensing mode. For help, see
the
ESim for the PC4, PF8, PD41, and PD42 Printer Programmer’s
Reference Manual .
• Verify the firmware version on your printer. Make sure that you are
not using a beta version. You can download the latest version from
the PF8 Downloads page on the Intermec web site at
