function. You should contact your sales or service representative.

See p.110 “List/Test Print Menu”.

If you can print a test page but cannot get the printer to print when

you issue a print command from the computer, it probably means

there is a problem with the computer.

Note that large or complex data might take a long time to be print-

ed.

Connect the interface cable properly. If there are any connectors or

screws, confirm that they are fastened securely.

Are you using the correct

The type of interface cable you should use depends on the compu-

ter. Be sure to use the correct one.

If the cable is damaged or worn, replace it with a new one.
