Timeout, increase the time value.
• In DDS 50/62 Network Setup>Parallel Setup>Ignore EOF:
If you are printing ASCII format PostScript only, set to No.
If you are printing Binary format PostScript, set to Yes.
• If you print using the DOS copy command, make sure to
use the /b option when printing binary files.
• Restart your Windows, enter BIOS setup, and if you have
a BIOS setting for the parallel port, make sure that it is
set to ECP and not to Bi-Directional, Compatible, EPP, or
any other mode.
• If you are using Windows 95, open the System
Properties control panel, click the Device Manager tab,
click Ports, double-click the parallel port you are using,
and make sure that the driver selected is the ECP Printer
Port driver instead of the standard Printer Port, EPP
Port, or any other driver.
For information about changing this setting, see your Windows
95 documentation.
• If the PostScript Printer driver that you are using lets you
select bi-directional support, make sure that it is
disabled.
This is generally set from the Details\Spool Settings dialog box
for the printer.
• Make sure that you did not override the setting for the
job in another place.
For information about print options, settings, and overrides, see
Appendix C of the DDS 50/62 User's Manual .
