1.Make sure the MFC is on (plugged into the AC outiet) and that it
is connected directly to the computer using the IEEE-1284 bi-
directional parallel cable. The cable must not go through another
peripheral device (such as a Zip Drive, External CD-ROM Drive,
or Switch box).
2.Make sure the MFC is not displaying an error message on the
LCD Display.
3.Make sure no other device drivers, which also communicate
through the parallel port, are running automatically when you boot
up the computer (such as, drivers for Zip Drivers, External CD-
ROM Drive, etc.)
Suggested areas to check: (Load=, Run=command lines in the
winanl file or the Statup Group).
4.Check with you computer manufacturer to confirm that the
computer's parallel port settings in the BIOS are set to support a
bi-directional machine, i.e., Parallel Port Mode-ECP
Check the video cable connection to the MFC's RCA pin jack.
Check that the video equipment is sending a signal (video
equipment is turned on and set to the correct setting).
