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 of less than 2 metres (6 1/2 feet) in length.
• 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 the appropriate printer driver is selected in ‘Set as
Default’.
• Check that the printer is not connected to the same port that is
also connected to a mass 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.
