Phaser 220 Drivers and Utilities

If the printer isn't printing

If you've conÞgured the Tektronix driver for your printer but your printer 
isn't printing, try the following suggestions:  

■

Macintosh users:

■

Open the 

Chooser

 and select the 

Tektronix Phaser 220

 driver and 

the printer that you want to use.  

■

Send the PostScript error handler utility to your printer to 
determine what is wrong.  Refer to the topic ÒUsing a PostScript 
error handlerÓ in this chapter for information on using the error 
handler.

■

Windows users:

■

Make sure that your printer is connected to the port that you 
selected in the 

Ports

 list box of the 

Printers/Connect

 dialog box.  

■

Check to make sure that you've conÞgured the communications 
ports and the 

Handshake

 option correctly.  

■

Try resetting the 

Transmission Retry

 timeout option in the 

Printers/Connect

 dialog box to 

999

 seconds.  

■

Check the 

Options

 dialog box to make sure that 

Printer

, not 

Encapsulated PostScript File

, is selected in the Print To box.  

If these suggestions fail to solve the problem, copy the Tektronix PostScript 
Level 2 error handler utility to your printer to determine what is wrong.  
Refer to the topic ÒUsing a PostScript error handlerÓ in this chapter for 
information on using the PostScript error handler.

For more information, refer to the HAL article on 

General Troubleshooting 

Hints

.  To call HAL, refer to the topic ÒUsing the automated fax system,Ó in 

this chapter.
