SelecType Problems

SelecType does not function as expected.

Settings made with SelecType are ignored.

You may not have saved your settings before turning off or

resetting the printer. Make sure you save your settings with the

SYSTEM CONFIG option SAVE MACRO setting in SelecType

Level 1 or with P-CONFIG SAVE in Level 2.

Once you save

Level 1 settings in a macro, you also select a correct macro

number with POWERON MACRO, or SelecType settings return

to their previously-saved default settings after you turn off or

reset the printer.

You may have saved settings to the same macro number in two

or more channels. Never save settings to the same macro number

in different channels or the

settings

in one channel

may

affect the

settings in another channel.

The software may either be changing the defaults on the printer

or initializing the printer. This may require that you change the

initialization sequence sent by your software. See your software

manual for more information. You

can

probably make any

necessary setting with your software.
You may be trying to set certain combinations of settings with

SelecType that cannot be acted on by the printer. Usually,

SelecType does not allow you to make incompatible

combinations. However, certain combinations are not checked

for compatibility until after you exit SelecType and set the

printer on line. Others are

not

checked at all. See Chapter 4 for

more information about SelecType.
