Troubleshooting

Common Macintosh problems

The machine does
not scan.

Check if a document is loaded into the

machine.

Check if your machine is connected to the

computer. Make sure if it is connected properly

if I/O error is reported while scanning.

Check if the port is not busy. Since functional

components of MFP (printer and scanner)

share the same I/O interface (port), the

situation of simultaneous access of different

“consumer” application 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 “consumer” will

encounter “device busy” response. This can

usually happen while starting scan procedure,

and appropriate message box will be displayed.

To identify the source of the problem, you

should open ports configuration and select the

port assigned to your scanner. port’s symbol /

dev/mfp0 corresponds to LP:0 designation

displayed in the scanners’ options, /dev/mfp1

relates to LP:1 and so on. USB ports start at /

dev/mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to /dev/

mfp4 respectively and so forth sequentially. In

the Selected port pane you can see if the port is

occupied by some other application. If this is

the case, you should wait for completion of the

current job or should press Release port

button, if you are sure that the present port’s

owner is not functioning properly.

this problem. Turn on Print As Image from

the Acrobat printing options.

print a PDF file as an image.

CONDITION

SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS

The document has
printed, but the print job
has not disappeared
from the spooler in Mac
OS 10.3.2.

Update your Mac OS to OS 10.3.3. or

higher.

Some letters are not
displayed normally
during the Cover page
printing.

This problem is caused because Mac OS

cannot create the font during the Cover page

printing. English alphabet and numbers are

displayed normally at the Cover page.

When printing a
document in Macintosh
with Acrobat Reader 6.0
or higher, colors print
incorrectly.

The resolution setting in the printer driver

may not be matched with the one in Acrobat

Reader.

Refer to Mac OS User’s Guide that came with your computer for
