Problem
Recommendation
The printer prints unexpectedly
or it prints garbage.
•
Make sure the printer cable is not too long. We recommend you
use a parallel cable that is less than 2 metres (6 1/2 feet) long.
•
Check if the printer cable is damaged or broken.
•
If you are using an interface-switching device, remove it, and
then connect your computer directly to your printer and try again.
•
Check that you have chosen the appropriate printer driver as ‘Set
as Default’.
•
Check that the printer is not connected to the same port that is
also connected to a storage device or scanner. Remove all other
devices and connect the port to the printer only.
•
Turn off the status monitor in the Device / Options page on the
Advanced tab in the printer driver.
