User Check
Most laser printers have a restricted area that cannot be printed on. Usually the first two lines and
last two lines of text cannot print (leaving 62 printable lines). Adjust the top and bottom margins in
your document to allow for this.
The printer sometimes prints a couple of characters and then ejects the page.

User Check
(For DOS environment only)
The application printer emulation setting and the printer's emulation do not match. Check in the
application software which printer you have selected to make sure the printer is set up correctly.
Remember that the printer emulates widely used printer selections:
HL-5040: HP Laser Jet 6P
HL-5050/5070N: HP Laser Jet 6P, Brother BR-Script Level 3, Epson FX-850, IBM Proprinter
XL
Try setting the printer into HP emulation and then select the HP LaserJet 6P (for
HL5040/5050/5070N) printer in the application software.
