SUGGESTIONS
1. Make sure the MFC is on (plugged into the AC outlet) 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, Extemal CD-ROM Drive, or Swich 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 Drives, External CD-ROM Drive,
etc.). Suggested areas to check: (Load=, Run=command lines in the
win.ini file or the Statup Group).
4. Check with you compnter 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).
