Solving Problems 6.9 Common Linux Problems Some letters are not displayed normally during the Cover page printing.This problem is caused because Mac OS can not create the font during the Cover page printing. English alphabet and numbers are displayed normally at the Cover page. ProblemPossible Cause and Solution ProblemPossible Cause and Solution I can’t change settings in the configuration tool.You need to have administrator privileges to be able to change global settings. I am using the KDE desktop but the configuration tool and LLPR won’t start.You may not have the GTK libraries installed. These usually come with most Linux distributions, but you may have to install them manually. Refer to your distribution’s installation manual for more details about installing additional packages. I just installed this package but can’t find entries in the KDE/ Gnome menus.Some versions of the KDE or GNOME desktop environments may require that you restart your session for the changes to take effect. I get a “Some options are not selected” error message while editing the printer settings.Some printers have conflicting settings, meaning that some settings for two options can’t be selected at the same time. When you change a setting and the Printer Package detects such a conflict, the conflicting option is changed to a “No Choice” value. You have to choose an option that does not conflict before being able to submit the changes. I can’t make a printer the system default.In some conditions, it may not be possible to change the default queue. This happens with some variants of LPRng, especially on recent RedHat systems that use the “printconf” database of queues. When using printconf, the /etc./printcap file is automatically refreshed from the database of printers managed by the system (usually through the “printtool” command), and the queues in / etc./printcap.local are appended to the resulting file. The default queue in LPRng is defined as the first queue in /etc./printcap, and therefore it is not possible for the Linux Printer Package to change the default when some queues have otherwise been defined using printtool. LPD systems identify the default queue as the one named “lp”. Thus, if there is already a queue by this name, and if it doesn’t have an alias, then you won’t be able to change the default. To work around this, you can either delete the queue or rename it by manually editing the /etc./printcap file. The N-up setting does not work correctly for some of my documents.The N-up feature is achieved through post- processing of the PostScript data that is sent to the printing system. However, such post-processing can only be adequately achieved if the PostScript data conforms to the Adobe Document Structing Conventions. Problems may arise when using N-up and other features that rely on post-processing if the document being printed isn’t compliant. I am using BSD lpr (Slackware, Debian, older distributions) and some options chosen in LLPR don’t seem to take effect.Legacy BSD lpr systems have a hard limitation on the length of the option string that can be passed to the printing system. As such, if you selected a number of different options, you may have exceeded the length of the options and some of your choices won’t be passed to the programs responsible for implementing them. Try to select fewer options that deviate from the defaults, to save on memory usage. I am trying to print a document in Landscape mode, but it prints rotated and cropped.Most Unix applications that offer a Landscape orientation option in their printing options will generate correct PostScript code that should be printed as is. In that case, you need to make sure that you leave the LLPR option set to its default Portrait setting, to avoid unwanted rotations of the page that would result in cropped output.

Solving Problems 6.10 Some pages come out all white (nothing is printed), and I am using CUPS.If the data being sent is in Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) format, some earlier versions of CUPS (1.1.10 and before) have a bug preventing them from being processed correctly. When going through LLPR to print, the Printer Package will work around this issue by converting the data to regular PostScript. However, if your application bypasses LLPR and feeds EPS data to CUPS, the document may not print correctly. I can’t print to an SMB (Windows) printer.To be able to configure and use SMB-shared printers (such as printers shared on a Windows printer), you need to have a correct installation of the SAMBA package that enables that feature. The “smbclient” command should be available and usable on your system. My application seems to be frozen while LLPR is running.Most Unix applications will expect a command like the regular “lpr” command to be non-interactive and thus return immediately. Since LLPR is waiting for user input before passing the job on to the print spooler, very often the application will wait for the process to return, and thus will appear to be frozen (its windows won’t refresh). This is normal and the application should resume functioning correctly after the user exits LLPR. How do I specify the IP address of my SMB server?It can be specified in the “Add Printer” dialogue of the configuration tool, if you don’t use the CUPS printing system. Unfortunately, CUPS currently doesn’t allow you to specify the IP address of SMB printers, so you will have to be able to browse the resource with SAMBA in order to be able to print. Some documents come out as white pages when printing.Some versions of CUPS, especially those shipped with Mandrake Linux before the 8.1 release, have some known bugs when processing PostScript output from some applications. Try upgrading to the latest version of CUPS (at least 1.1.14). Some RPM packages for the most popular distributions are provided as a convenience with this Linux Printing Package. I have CUPS and some options (such as N- u p ) s e e m t o b e a l wa y s enabled even though I don’t choose them in LLPR.There may be some local options defined in your ~/ .lpoptions file, which are manipulated by the lpoptions command. These options are always used if not overridden by LLPR settings. To get rid of all options for a printer, run the following command, replacing “printer” with the name of the queue: lpoptions -x printer I configured a printer to print to a file, but I get “Permission denied” errors.Most printing systems will not run as the super-user but as a special user (usually “lp”). Therefore, make sure that the file you have chosen to print to is accessible to the user owning the spooler daemon. ProblemPossible Cause and Solution On my PCL (or GDI) printer, I sometimes get error messages printing instead of my document.Unfortunately, some Unix applications may generate non-compliant PostScript output that may not be supported by Ghostscript, or even the printer itself in PostScript mode. You can try to capture the output to a file and view the results with Ghostscript (gv or ghostview will allow you to do so interactively) and see if you get error messages. However, since the application is probably at fault, contact your software vendor to inform them of the issue. Some colour images come out all black.This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU Ghostscript version 7.05) when the base colour space of the document is indexed colour space and it is converted through CIE colour space. Because Postscript uses CIE colour space for Colour 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. The machine does not print.The CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) version distributed with SuSE Linux 9.2 (cups-1.1.21) has a problem with ipp (Internet Printing Protocol) printing. Use the socket printing instead of ipp or install later version of CUPS (cups-1.1.22 or higher). Some color images come out in unexpected color.This is a known bug in Ghostscript (until GNU Ghostscript version 7.xx) when the base colour space of the document is indexed RGB colour space and it is converted through CIE colour space. Because Postscript uses CIE color space for Colour 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. The printer does not print PDF file correctly. Some parts of graphics, text, or illustrations are missing.Incompatibility between the PDF file and the Acrobat products: Printing the PDF file as an image may solve this problem. Turn on Print As Image from the Acrobat printing options. NOTE:It will take longer to print when you print a PDF file as an image.

Using Your Printer on a Network 7.1 7Using Your Printer on a Network If you work in a networked environment, the printer can be shared by other users on the network. This chapter includes: • About Sharing the Printer on a Network • Setting Up a Network-Connected Printer (Phaser 6110N only) NOTE: If you are a Phaser 6110N user, you can only connect your printer to a network locally, for use via a single computer. About Sharing the Printer on a Network If you work in a networked environment, you can connect your printer to the network. Locally-Shared Printer You can connect the printer directly to a selected computer, which is called the “host computer” on the network. The printer can then be shared by other users on the network through a Windows 98/Me/XP/NT 4.0/2000/2003 network printer connection. For details about sharing the printer locally, see the Software Section . Wired Network-connected Printer (Phaser 6110N only) The Phaser 6110N printer has a built-in network interface. For more information about connecting your printer to a network, see 2.6. Printing Across a Network Whether the printer is locally connected or network-connected, you need to install the Phaser 6110N series printer software on each computer that prints documents using the printer. Setting Up a Network-Connected Printer (Phaser 6110N only) You have to set up the network protocols on the printer to use it as your network printer. Setting protocols can be accomplished by using the SetIP program.

Ensure that the paper is of good quality, and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges. If you are unsure of what type of paper you are loading, such as bond or recycled paper, check the label on the package. The following problems may cause print quality deviations, jamming or even damage to the printer. NOTES: • Do not use letterhead paper printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types of thermography. • Do not use raised or embossed letterhead. • The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Ensure that any coloured paper or preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with this fusing temperature (180 °C or 356 °F for 0.1 second).

Ideally, the printer and paper storage environment should be at or near room temperature, and not too dry or humid. Remember that paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses moisture rapidly. Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the moisture in paper to evaporate, while cold causes it to condense on the sheets. Heating systems and air conditioners remove most of the humidity from a room. As paper is opened and used, it loses moisture, causing streaks and smudging. Humid weather or water coolers can cause the humidity to increase in a room. As paper is opened and used it absorbs any excess moisture, causing light print and dropouts. Also, as paper loses and gains moisture it can become distorted. This can cause paper jams. Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be used in a short time (about 3 months). Paper stored for long periods may experience heat and moisture extremes, which can cause damage. Planning is important to prevent damage to large supplies of paper. Unopened paper in sealed reams can remain stable for several months before use. Opened packages of paper have more potential for environmental damage, especially if they are not wrapped with a moisture-proof barrier. The paper storage environment should be properly maintained to ensure optimum printer performance. The required condition is 20 to 24 °C (68 to 75 °F), with a relative humidity of 45 % to 55 %. The following guidelines should be considered when evaluating the paper’s storage environment: • Paper should be stored at or near room temperature. • The air should not be too dry or too humid. • The best way to store an opened ream of paper is to rewrap it tightly in its moisture-proof wrapping. If the printer environment is subject to extremes, unwrap only the amount of paper to be used during the day’s operation to prevent unwanted moisture changes. Envelopes Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors: • Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m 2 (24 lb) or jamming may occur. • Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.25 in) curl, and should not contain air. Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals
Specifications 8.4 • Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged. • Temperature: You should use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and pressure of the printer. • Size: You should only use envelopes within the following size ranges. NOTE: You may experience some paper jams when using any media with a length less than 127 mm (5 in). This may be caused by paper that has been affected by environmental conditions. For optimum performance, make sure you are storing and handling the paper correctly. Please refer to “Printer and Paper Storage Environment” on page 8.3. Envelopes with Double Side Seams Double side-seam construction has vertical seams at both ends of the envelope rather than diagonal seams. This style may be more likely to wrinkle. Be sure the seam extends all the way to the corner of the envelope as illustrated below. Envelopes with Adhesive Strips or Flaps Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the heat and pressure in the printer. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or even jams, and may even damage the fuser. MinimumMaximum Tray 3 x 5 in (76 x 127 mm)8.5 x 14 in (216 x 356 mm) Correct Incorrect Envelope Margins The following gives typical address margins for a commercial #10 or DL envelope. NOTES: • For best print quality, position margins no closer than 0.6 in (15 mm) from the edges of the envelope. • Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet. Envelope Storage Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality. Envelopes should be stored flat. If air is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, then the envelope may wrinkle during printing. See “Printing on Envelopes” on page 3.3. Labels CAUTION: • To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels recommended for laser printers. • Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once and never print on a partial sheet of labels. When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component: • Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 180 °C (356 °F), the printer’s fusing temperature. • Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets with spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. • Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 0.5 in (13 mm) of curl in any direction. • Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. See “Printing on Labels” on page 3.3. Transparencies Transparencies used in the machine must be able to withstand 180 °C (356 °F), the machine’s fusing temperature. CAUTION: To avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies recommended for use in laser printers.
