Apple ColorLaserWriter 12/600PS - Manual (Page 269)

m Someone may have renamed the printer. (Check the startup page for the
printer’s name.)
m If you are using an AppleTalk network that contains zones, you may not
have selected the correct zone for the printer.
m There’s a problem in the network cable system somewhere between your
computer and the printer you want to use. Make sure that all the cables are
properly connected. If you still can’t resolve the problem, the printer’s
electronics or the network connector boxes may not be functioning
properly. Call an Apple-authorized dealer.
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 Printer Utility for
Windows, as described in Chapter 3.
m Check the Network control panel to make sure the correct network
is selected.
A desktop printer icon appears again as soon as you drag it to the trash.
You must always have at least one desktop printer icon. If you drag your last
desktop printer to the Trash, the computer instantly creates another one just
like it.
An X appears over the desktop printer icon.
The X indicates that the desktop printing software is not working.
m You may have started the computer using a different startup disk or
temporarily turned off all the software extensions. When you restart the
computer as usual, the icons will return to normal.
m You may have removed the desktop printing software that created the
printer icons. If you meant to do so, you can drag the icons to the Trash. If
not, you can reinstall the software as explained in Chapter 2.
