CAUTION: If you turn the printer off before the file system check has finished, the file system could
be seriously damaged, making the printer's hard disk unusable. In any case, the file system check
restarts from the beginning whenever you turn the printer on.
A file system check is scheduled every 90 days, in order to maintain the hard disk's file system integrity.
NOTE: When the printer is powered back on, it takes about three minutes to initialize and check and
prepare the printheads. However, it can take up to 40 under some conditions, for example, when the
printer has not been used for a long period of time and requires more time to prepare the printheads.
No output when printing from Microsoft Visio 2003
For more information about problems when printing large images (more than 129 inches long) from
Microsoft Visio 2003, see Microsoft's online knowledge base:
http://support.microsoft.com/search/.
To avoid these problems, it is possible to scale the image down in Visio to a size shorter than 129 inches
and then to scale the drawing up in the driver by using the Scale to options in the Effects tab of the
Windows driver. If the down-scaling in the application and the up-scaling in the driver match, the result
is as originally intended.
Unavailable driver features when printing from
QuarkXPress
When you print from QuarkXPress, the following driver features are not available.
●
Print Preview
●
Rotation
●
Scaling
●
Office features or paper saving options
●
Back to front printing
To get the same results, use the equivalent features available in QuarkXPress.
Printer alerts
Your printer can communicate are two types of alerts:
●
Errors: Mainly alerting you to the fact that the printer is unable to print. However, in the driver,
errors can also alert you to conditions that could ruin the print, such as clipping, even if the printer
is able to print.
●
Warnings: Alert you when the printer needs attention either for an adjustment, such a calibration
or for a possible unprintable situation, such a preventive maintenance or low ink.
