Your printer driver settings can override any settings from the
l
printer menu or printer front panel.
Before sending a file to the printer, many word processors send either
an "initialization string" or an I-Prime signal to the printer.
The initialization string contains codes that override the panel and
menu settings. To change your printer to ignore the reset code, enter
the Menu Mode, go to the Set-Up group and change the setting for
Reset Inhibit to Yes.
The I-Prime signal will automatically override any front panel settings
you have made. To eliminate this problem, enter the Menu Mode, go
to the Parallel Interface group and change the setting for I-Prime to
Invalid.
For more information on changing menu settings, see "Changing the
Menu Settings" in Chapter 3.
Problem
Nothing happens when I turn ON the printer.
Solution
Check the power cord connection to the outlet and to the printer. If
you are using a power strip, make sure it is turned ON, and that the
fuse hasn't blown or that the circuit breaker hasn't tripped.
Problem
The printer does not print when the computer sends data.
Solutions
1. Is the SEL light on? If not, press the SEL key.
2. Check that the interface cable is securely connected to both
the printer and the computer.
3.
If you have the optional serial interface board installed, check
to be sure that it is firmly seated in the printer.
