The machine does not print. Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open Unified Driver Configurator and switch to the Printers tab in the
Printers configuration window to look at the list of available machines. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the list. If
not, open Add new printer wizard to set up your device.
Check if the machine is started. Open Printers configuration and select your machine from the printers list. Look at the
description in the Selected printer pane. If its status contains Stopped, press the Start button. Normal operation of the machine
should be restored. The “stopped” status might be activated when some problems in printing occur.
Check if your application has special print options such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter, then
remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select “print” -> “Setup printer” and edit the command line parameter in the
command item.
Some color images come out all
black.
This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU Ghostscript version 7.05) when the base color space of the document is indexed color
space and it is converted through CIE color space. Because Postscript uses CIE color space for Color Matching System, you should
upgrade Ghostscript on your system to at least GNU Ghostscript version 7.06 or later. You can find recent Ghostscript versions at
www.ghostscript.com.
Some color images come out in
unexpected color.
This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU Ghostscript version 7.xx) when the base color space of the document is indexed RGB
color space and it is converted through CIE color space. Because Postscript uses CIE color space for Color Matching System, you
should upgrade Ghostscript on your system to at least GNU Ghostscript version 8.xx or later. You can find recent Ghostscript versions
at www.ghostscript.com.
