Quick Start
Compatibility Modes
The printer’s parallel port supports ECP mode and IEEE 1284
bi-directional mode. If your computer’s parallel port is not
compatible with one of these modes, the printer may not print
at all or it may print corrupted data.
To correct for this:
1 Enter the printer’s Maintenance menu and change the ECP
setting to Disable (see Changing the ECP Setting under
Printer Menus in the Printer Control section of the
User’s Guide).
2 If there is still a problem, enter the printer’s Level-2 menu
and change the Bi-Direction setting to Disable (see
Changing Parallel Interface Menu Settings under
Printer Menus in the Printer Control section of the
User’s Guide).
