Possible cause
Is the Data In indicator
blinking or lit after start-
ing the print job?
Do you print via a net-
work?
Solutions
If the Data In indicator stays off, data is not being sent to
the printer or the printer may be resetting the print job be-
cause there was a long delay in receiving the data from
the computer.
If the printer is using "I/O Timeout"
Increase the value of the "I/O Timeout" setting of the
"IPDL-C Menu" or "RPS2 Menu". Or set the "I/O Tim-
eout" value to "0" (this is the off setting). ⇒ P.83 "Using
the Operation Panel"
If the printer is connected to the computer using the
parallel cable
Confirm that the printer port settings are correct. For a
parallel port connection, port LPT1 or LPT2 should be
set.
For more information about the printer port settings,
see the notes after this table.
