m The printer has the same name as other printers on the network. If that’s
the case, the printer automatically appends a number to the end of its name
when it’s turned on. The number may change each time you turn on the
printer. The printer administrator can change the name using the Apple
Printer Utility, as described in Chapter 2, or the Apple LaserWriter Utility
for Windows, as described in Chapter 3. You can identify your printer by
looking for the printer with the same Ethernet address that is printed on
the startup page.
m Check the Network control panel to make sure the correct network
is selected.
The printer appears more than once in your Chooser (for example, LaserWriter 12/640 PS
and LaserWriter 12/640 PS 1).
Your printer may be connected to a LocalTalk network and an EtherTalk
network with a router that connects them as one logical zone. Apple
recommends that you disconnect the LocalTalk port.
An “out of memory” message appears on your screen when you try to print.
The printer may have insufficient memory to print if
m the document contains too many fonts that need to be downloaded from
your computer to the printer
m the document contains complex images
m you use a lot of fonts in your document but have not selected Unlimited
Downloadable Fonts in the Page Setup Printer Options dialog box
If a page contains very complex images, try to remove some of the complex
detail from that page (or spread the information over two pages) and try again
to print it. Also, find Desktop PrintMonitor in the Extensions folder in the
System Folder and use the Get Info command to increase its memory size.
If you encounter the “out of memory” message frequently, you can remedy
this by increasing the amount of memory in the printer. See Chapter 5.
