system. Open Unified Driver Configurator and
switch to the Printers tab in Printers
configuration window to look at the list of
available machines. Make sure that your
machine is displayed on the list. If not, open

configuration and select your machine on the
printers list. Look at the description in the
Selected printer pane. If its status contains
Stopped string, press
that normal operation of the machine should be
restored. The "stopped" status might be
activated when some problems in printing
occurred. For instance, this could be an
attempt to print a document when the port is
claimed by a scanning application.
Ensure the port is not busy. Since functional
components of machine (printer and scanner)
share the same I/O interface (port), the
situation of simultaneous access of different
user applications to the same port is possible.
To avoid possible conflicts, only one of them at
a time is allowed to gain control over the
device. The other user will encounter "device
busy" response. You should open ports
configuration and select the port assigned to
your machine. In the Selected port pane you
can see if the port is occupied by some other
application. If this is the case, you should either
wait for completion of the current job or press
the Release port button, if you are sure that
the present application is not functioning
properly.
Check if your application has special print
option such as "-oraw". If "-oraw" is specified in
the command line parameter, then remove it to
print properly. For Gimp front-end, select "print"
-> "Setup printer" and edit command line
parameter in the command item.
