m Tu rn on virtual memory in the Memory control panel. Virtual memory is
described in the instructions that came with your computer. (Note: Using
virtual memory can slow down your computer.)
m As long as there are any print requests waiting to be printed, Desktop
PrintMonitor (the desktop printing software) remains active in memory,
even when background printing is off. If you are not printing in the
background, you can remove all print requests from your desktop printer
queues to reduce memory requirements by 160K.
m Obtaining additional RAM for your computer can solve some of these
problems and improve printing speed.
Documents did not print as expected
If the quality of printing is OK—not smeared or incomplete—but the result is
not as you expected, you may have made a mistake in using the printer
software. Check the subsections that follow for suggestions.
Text appears in the Geneva font or prints jagged
When your Macintosh computer is low on memory, it may display and print
certain fonts in the Geneva font.
Some text may also
have jagged edges. To fix low-memory problems, see the preceding section,
“Memory Is Low.”
If you’re printing to a shared StyleWriter that is not directly connected to your
computer and you use Adobe
Typ e Ma nager, the PostScript
version of your
fonts must be installed on the computer that is directly connected to the
StyleWriter.
For more information about fonts, see Appendix B, “Using Fonts With the
Color StyleWriter 2500.”
Some rotated text may print jagged if you apply a style that has not been
defined for the font. Try applying plain style to the text.
