Incorrect Characters Print

If incorrect characters appear in your prints, try these solutions before reprinting:

• Make sure any cables are securely connected at both ends.

• In Windows, delete all jobs from the Windows Spooler. Click

Print Queue

on the Maintenance tab in

the printer settings window, and cancel any stalled print jobs.

• On a Mac, cancel any paused print jobs.

• If your product is connected to a USB hub, connect it directly to your computer instead.

• If incorrect characters still appear in your prints, try connecting your product using a different cable.

• If your computer entered sleep mode the last time you printed, the next print job after your computer

exits sleep mode may contain garbled characters. Print your document again.

• If you are using the PostScript printer software, EPS files created in binary format may not print

correctly. Try creating the file in ASCII format instead.

• If you are using the Windows PostScript printer software, the product cannot print binary data if it is

connected to the computer using a USB cable. Try selecting

ASCII

TBCP

as the

Output Protocol

setting on the Device Settings tab in the printer properties.

• If you are using the Windows PostScript printer software, select the appropriate substitution fonts on

the Device Settings tab in the printer properties.
