********************
2. HINTS AND ISSUES
********************

2.1 HINTS

     Caution: Do not modify the contents of the Jetsuite.ini file. Doing
              so might cause the JetSuite Pro software, and possibly
              Windows, to become unstable.

              Do not uninstall the Win32s files prior to running the
              JetSuite Pro software uninstall option for Windows 3.1x.
              Successful uninstallation depends on the availability of
              these files.

     ------------------------------------------------
     If you already have a PC fax or scanning program
     ------------------------------------------------

     JetSuite PC Fax
     ----------------

       The JetSuite Pro software that came with the HP LaserJet 3100
       product includes a PC fax program. HP recommends using the
       included JetSuite PC Fax program because it is designed to work
       with the HP LaserJet 3100 product. However, you can continue
       using the PC fax program you already have if it is listed in the
       "Supported third-party programs" section.

       If you want to use the JetSuite PC Fax program, change the setup
       for the other PC fax program so that it does not answer incoming
       calls, or uninstall it. You cannot have both programs trying to
       answer fax calls on the same line. If you want to continue using
       your PC fax program, see the "Supported third-party programs"
       section for a list of PC fax programs that have been tested for
       compatibility with the HP LaserJet 3100 product.

     Scanning
     --------

       The HP LaserJet 3100 product comes with a scanning software. You
       can also use other TWAIN-compliant scanning software.


2.2 INSTALLATION ISSUES

Issue:      You receive the following message while attempting to
            install the software: "An Unknown System Exists. Remove
            before installing JetSuite."

Solution:   In the case of an incomplete JetSuite Pro software
            installation, the file "X:\Windows\Jetsuite.ini" might have
            been written. This file must be removed before attempting
            another JetSuite Pro software installation.


Issue:      You receive the following message: "Setup has determined
            that you do not have enough disk space on the selected
            drive. Please reduce the set of install components or change
            the install drive."

Cause:      The JetSuite Pro software requires at least 30 MB of
            available disk space to be installed. After you select the
            JetSuite Pro software and data directories, the installation
            program checks to make sure that your computer has enough
            available disk space.

Solution:   Check the amount of disk space available. If space is
            sufficient, run a disk defragmenter program. Otherwise,
            delete unnecessary files or archive older data to floppy
            disks or another medium. As a workaround, quit all open
            programs, and then try reinstalling.


Issue:      You receive the following message: "JetSuite Fax has
            detected that the HP LaserJet 3100 is either switched off or
            is not connected to your computer."

Cause A:    The parallel cable is loose or not directly connected, or
            the parallel port does not match the specifications listed
            in the "System requirements" section.

Solution A: Make sure the parallel cable between the computer and the
            HP LaserJet 3100 product is directly and securely connected.
            Also, make sure that the parallel port matches the
            specifications in the "System requirements" section.

Cause B:    The power cord is loose or the power source is not working
            properly.

Solution B: Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the power
            source and into the HP LaserJet 3100 product. Also, make
            sure that the power source is receiving power.

Cause C:    The parallel cable may be faulty.

Solution C: If you have another size-C parallel cable, try attaching it
            to the HP LaserJet 3100 product. If you do not have another
            cable, see the "Technical assistance and support
            information" section for information on ordering a cable
            from HP.


Issue:      You receive the following message: "There are not enough
            free COM ports on this system. You must have at least two
            available COM ports to install this software."

Cause:      The software needs at least two COM ports. At least two COM
            ports are not available.

Solution:   Free one or two COM ports by eliminating devices or adding
            more COM ports to your computer.


Issue:      The software did not install (Windows 95 only).

Cause:      All programs except Systray and Explorer should be closed.

Solution:   Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to check for open programs. If there are
            other open programs, click one of them, and then click End
            Task. Repeat this step for each open program, and then
            reinstall the software.


Issue:      The computer cannot read the installation CD-ROM or floppy
            disks.

Cause A:    The correct drive may not have been specified.

Solution A: Check for the proper disk drive letter. Often, the drive
            letter is D or E for the CD-ROM drive or A or B for the
            floppy disk drive.

Cause B:    The CD-ROM or floppy disks may be damaged.

Solution B: Copy the CD-ROM or disk directories to the hard disk. Then
            install from the hard disk.

Issue:      You have installed the JetSuite software, but your Optical
            Character Recognition (OCR) software does not recognize 
            documents in your language. 

Cause:      The JetSuite software uses the Windows international setting for
            selecting the language it installs. However, the JetSuite software
            only supports Dutch, English, French, and German so for any setting
            other than those it installs English.

Solution:   The IRIS Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software language
            that is installed matches the JetSuite software language.
            The default dictionary for the OCR software is either Dutch,
            English, French, or German. The IRIS OCR software supports more
            languages in addition to those four. To set another dictionary
            as the default do the following:

            1. Double click the IRIS OCR icon on the Manager toolbar.

            2. Select your language in the Language pull-down box.

            5. Click File.

            6. Click Set Default Settings.

            7. Click OK to save the language as your default.


2.3 COMMUNICATION PORT ISSUES

Issue:      The computer cannot determine if a COM port is available
            (Windows 95 only).

Solution:   Use the Control Panel's Modem Diagnostics tool to determine
            COM port availability.

            To use the Modem Diagnostics tool:

               1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control
                  Panel.

               2. Double-click the Modems icon and click the Diagnostics
                  tab.

            The COM ports detected are listed. If a modem or a mouse
            is attached to a COM port, it is listed next to that
            port.


Issue:      There is a conflict when attempting to use the parallel port
            (Windows 95 only).

Cause:      Windows 95, by default, does not keep track of interrupt
            requests (IRQs) for unidirectional or bidirectional parallel
            ports. Windows 95 might configure another device (most often
            a sound card) to use the IRQ of the LPT port.

Solution:   Manually assign an IRQ to the LPT port:

               1. Double-click the System icon in Control Panel.

               2. Click the Device Manager tab.

               3. Click the + next to Ports (COM & LPT).

               4. Click Printer Port (LPT1).

               5. Click Properties.

               6. Click the Resources tab.

               7. Ensure the Use Automatic Settings checkbox is NOT
                  checked.

               8. Click Basic Configuration 1.

               9. Click Interrupt Request in the Resources Type Area.

              10. Click Change Setting.

              11. Change the value to 7 (if using LPT2, use 5). If a
                  conflict with another device is reported, resolve it
                  by changing the configuration of the conflicting
                  device.

              12. Click OK twice.

              13. A dialog box appears with the message indicating that
                  Windows must be shut down. Click Yes.

              14. Restart the computer.


Issue:      When you attempt to scan an image, the mouse locks up.
            Until then the mouse works fine.

Cause:      A COM port input/output (I/O) address might be in conflict.

Solution:   1. Open an MS-DOS window and run MSD (Microsoft
               Diagnostics).

            2. Open the COM port section. You should see a chart
               similar to the following. (Your chart might differ due to
               your computer configuration.)

                                      COM1        COM2        COM3
                                     ------      ------      ------
                 Port Address         03f8        02f8        03e8 
                 Baud Rate            7200        1200        2400
                 Parity               None        None        None
                 Data Bits            8           8           8
                 Stop Bits            1           1           1
                 Carrier Detect       No          No          No
                 Ring Indicator       No          No          No
                 Data Set Ready       No          No          No
                 Clear To Send        No          Yes         No
                 UART                 8250        16550       16550

            According to the chart, 3 COM ports are available: COM1,
            COM2, and COM3. In some cases, Windows might report a
            different set of COM ports (for example COM1, COM2, and
            COM4). In this example, the COM4 port uses the COM3 address.

            If this occurs when the JetSuite Pro software is installed,
            it configures the COM port as COM4 and uses the COM3
            address. This requires that IRQ sharing be enabled.

            To enable IRQ sharing, add the line "COMXIRQ=-1" to the
            C:\Windows\System.ini file, where X is the COM port number.


Issue:      Cannot acquire a scanned image in PhotoPaint 7.0.

Cause:      The "Scanner Transfer mode" might be set to "Buffered".

Solution:   Change the "Scanner Transfer mode" to "Memory".


Issue:      Cannot use Eudora Pro 3.0 with the JetSuite Pro software.

Cause:      Eudora might not be using a messaging application
            programming interface (MAPI).

Solution:   Set Eudora Pro 3.0 to use a MAPI server. To do this:

               1. Click Tools, and then click Options.

               2. Select the MAPI icon.

               3. Select Always Use Eudora MAPI Server.

               4. Click OK.

3.4 KNOWN ISSUES

Issue:      The Document Assistant appears on top of the screen
            saver.

Cause:      In Windows 3.1x, if the HP LaserJet 3100 Status
            program (JetStat) is running, the screen saver does
            not function.

Solution:   Disable the JetStat program. Keep in mind that the
            JetStat program must be running to control the HP
            LaserJet 3100 product from your computer. To 
            disable the JetStat program:

               1. Right-click the JetStat icon found in the 
                  lower portion of your Windows screen.

               2. Click Exit JetStat.

            Note: To restart JetStat, select "HP LaserJet 3100
            Status" from the "HP LaserJet 3100 JetSuite Pro" program 
            group.


Issue:      Some of the tools are hidden on the JetSuite Pro
            Desktop toolbar.

Cause:      The JetSuite Pro Desktop toolbar has a fixed size and
            does not have a scroll bar. Therefore, there might be
            programs on the toolbar that cannot be displayed.

Solution:   Reduce the number of programs on the toolbar by:

            1. With your cursor over the toolbar, right-click. This
               brings up the Toolbar Customization window.

            2. Remove programs from the toolbar by removing the
               checkmark in the checkbox. To remove checkmarks,
               click the box next to the program.

            3. Click OK.


Issue:      The default printer is set to the HP LaserJet 3100
            product even though another printer is set as the
            default in Windows.

Cause:      The default printer in the JetSuite Pro Desktop is
            always set to the HP LaserJet 3100 product regardless
            of the default setting in Windows.

Solution:   You can print to another printer by selecting it from
            the Name drop-down list in the Print dialog box.


Issue:      A General Protection Fault (GPF) occurs when printing
            Micrografx Designer 4.0 documents.

Cause:      Micrografx Designer 4.0 and HP LaserJet 3100 drivers
            are incompatible.

Solution:   Download and install the following Micrografx patch:
            http://www.micrografx.com/mgxftp/Ds40a.zip


Issue:      After loading paper in the Automatic Document Feeder
            (ADF) and clicking Preview in the JetSuite PC Send
            Fax dialog box, the following message appears:

                 "C:\JetSuite\Fax\10000000.jsd
                 This file was not found. "

            When you click OK, the fax job is canceled.

Cause:      All of the pages to be faxed are loaded in the ADF, and
            are not yet scanned into memory. As a result, the
            JetSuite Pro software cannot display a preview of these
            pages.

Solution:   Use the Preview feature only when you are sending a fax job
            that includes electronic pages.


Issue:      I get an error message when trying to 
            "Print to Email" from within an application. 

Cause:      32bit applications do not properly link to email. 

Solution:   First, "Print to File" from the application:
            NOTE: The actual process to do many of the
                  following steps will vary between different
                  applications. Please reference your applications
                  help resources if necessary.

           1) Select "JetSuite Document Capture" as the printer 

           2) Go into the Printer Property Sheet for the 
              "JetSuite Document Capture"

           3) Verify that the output is set to "Print to File. "

           4) Print the document.  
              HINT: If prompted for a filename, save it into
                    the JetSuite\doc directory for easier 
                    viewing later.

            Second, drag that file onto the email button in the
            JetSuite Desktop:

            1) Open up the JetSuite desktop.

            2) Highlight the new document.

            3) Click the email icon on the toolbar.


Issue:      Nothing happens when I push the "Properties" icon
            in the Print window with "JetSuite Fax" selected as
            the printer.

            OR

            I get a "Could not display the printer properties.
            You may need to reinstall this printer" message 
            when pressing the Setup icon in the Details tab of
            the Printer Properties window.

Cause:      Windows is missing some general printer files.

Solution:   Install any windows printer by doing the following:

            1) Select Start - Settings - Printers

            2) Double click the "Add Printer" icon

            3) Follow the instructions, selecting any printer
               when prompted.


3.5 IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING! Using controls, making adjustments, or performing
procedures other than those specified in the product manual may
result in exposure to hazardous laser radiation.

WARNING! Isopropyl alcohol should be used to clean the light gray
pick-up roller located inside the printer's front door and the
long white strip on the inside of the scanner document release
door. Alcohol is flammable. Use only a very small amount and keep
it away from open flame. Allow alcohol to dry completely before
closing the printer and plugging in the power cord.
