Alternatively, for more precise control, click the Advanced button and add the printer's IP
address to the list of Exceptions for which the proxy server is not used.

Try switching off the printer (with the Power key on the front panel) and then switching it on
again.

An out-of-memory error

There is no direct relationship between the size of a file in your computer and the amount of memory
needed in the printer to print the file. In fact, because of file compression and other complicating
factors it is often impossible to estimate how much memory will be needed. So it is possible that a
print will fail for lack of memory even though you may have successfully printed larger files in the
past. In this case you may need to consider adding more memory to your printer.

If you are using the Windows HP-GL/2 driver, you can often solve printer memory problems by
selecting the Advanced tab, then Document options, then Printer features, then Print job as raster.

NOTE If you select this option, the time needed to process the job in your computer may be
considerably longer.

An AutoCAD 2000 memory allocation error

After installing the printer driver, when you try to print for the first time from AutoCAD 2000, you may
see a message saying Memory allocation error, after which your image is not printed.

This is due to a problem in AutoCAD 2000, and it can be fixed by downloading the Plotting Update
Patch (plotupdate.exe) from the Autodesk Web site, http://www.autodesk.com/.

This patch is also worth trying if you have any other strange problems when printing from AutoCAD
2000.

printer, contains a bottle of suitable oil.
