6-4 Problem Solving
PDF Printing
„
When printing a PDF, sending a large file may result in the printing of print limit check error sheets
or only a banner sheet. If this occurs, print the PDF file using the PostScript printer driver or try
printing the PDF file using LPR.
„
Windows 98 / Me PCL5c printer drivers have occasional problems with some PDF files, resulting in
blank characters and incorrect fonts within the printed documents.
Microsoft Applications
Excel
„
To change the job type options for any individual document, you must set the job type from within
Microsoft Excel (Page Setup dialog). Job type changes for an individual document will not take
effect if you invoke the CentreWare printer driver from the Printers folder.
„
Excel will generate multiple print jobs instead of multiple copies of a single document. This
behavior can result in performance degradation, as well as inoperability of features, such as Sample
Set, which depend on multiple set printing. In Excel, deselect the Collate option. This allows the
driver settings to collate correctly.
„
Excel may have occasional problems with documents that contain a mix of portrait and landscape
pages. Selecting a different printer driver, then reselecting the original printer driver may help to
resolve this problem.
PowerPoint
The Microsoft PowerPoint feature that optimizes black and white printing will produce undesired results
when Raster output is selected as the Graphics Mode in the CentreWare PCL printer driver. Do not
choose the black and white option in PowerPoint if Raster output is required.
Word 6.0
„
If you access the printer drivers through Microsoft Word Version 6.0, any changes made to the
printer driver settings will be saved as the new default settings. This will impact all applications that
use the same printer driver.
„
Custom paper sizes will not work with Microsoft Word Version 6.0. This version of Word will
automatically change any custom paper size defined in the CentreWare printer driver to the nearest
standard paper size.
„
Word 6.0 may ignore some printer driver setting changes when the driver is opened from Word and a
file is printed immediately after the changes are made. If this occurs, it may be necessary to close
and reopen the Print dialog within Word (File > Print).
PCL Printer Driver
Raster Mode
Use the PCL Raster Mode option to print the following document types with the PCL5c printer driver:
„
Web pages with animated images
„
Printing Corel Draw documents. Corel Draw may generate an excessive number of Vector
commands, which may result in large amounts of processing time for each job.
