Fax Machine Connect Failure or Bi-Directional
Communication Error
Recently, some printers have included a function to show the printer status on
the PC display. Such printers use the bi-directional communication parallel
port between the printer and the PC. Our Brother printer driver also has a
bi-directional parallel port function. Since Windows
bi-directional communication on the parallel port, each peripheral vendor has
developed and supplied a bi-directional device driver, which will be installed
®
into Windows 3.1x. If you install two or more different bi-directional device
®
drivers into Windows , they might conflict with each other and cause problems.
Please make sure you have installed the Brother printer driver, by executing
SETUP.EXE from your CD-ROM drive, following the instructions on the
diskette label. The bi-directional communication may be disabled when the
driver is installed from the Add menu in "Printers" of the Control Panel. Please
®
restart Windows .
Remove the conflicting situation caused by one of the following printer
drivers. Review the following sections that apply to any additional printer
drivers you may have installed in your Windows
