Apple IIe Card - Manual (Page 61)

- Make sure the printer's power cord is plugged in and the printer's power
switch is turned on.
- Make sure the printer cable is connected to the correct port.
- Make sure the AppleTalk option is turned off in the Macintosh Chooser if
the printer is directly connected to the Macintosh LC (that is, if it is not
connected via a network).
- Make sure the Printer Card is in a slot that your program can print to,
usually slot 1 (and sometimes slot 7).
- Make sure the program's print options are consistent with the slot settings
in the Option Panel. (See the manual that came with the program you want to
run.)
- If you're printing through the Printer Card, make sure your Apple IIe
program is set to print to an ImageWriter II. No matter what printer you're
actually using, the Printer Card treats it like an ImageWriter II.
- Turn on the Extend Printer Timeout feature in the Printer Card portion of
the Option Panel.
An Apple IIe document stops printing before it should

Problems Ejecting Disks

Command-Shift-2 to eject a disk from a second built-in disk drive.)

authorized Apple dealer to help fix these problems.
I can't eject the disk from an external disk drive

connected and that the Macintosh is turned on. Make sure the computer is
turned off before you connect or disconnect any cables.
- If the drive is a UniDisk 3.5 Drive, press the Eject button on the drive.
If the drive is an Apple 5.25 Drive, open the disk drive door.
