I. INTRODUCTION
This Readme file contains special information relating
to the following items:
- Application Notes
- Connectivity
- Printer Driver
- Status Display
============================================================
II. APPLICATION NOTES
1. Acrobat Reader 5 -- When documents are printed with
"Choose Paper Source by PDF page size", while "Print
as image" is not selected, they may not print correctly.
In this case, you may use one of the following methods:
- Select "Shrink oversized pages to paper size" and
"Print as Image", when printing.
- Upgrade to Adobe Reader 6 or later.
2. MS Internet Explorer 5.0 -- A SPOOL32 crash may
occur when printing web pages containing Java-
related data. Upgrade to Internet Explorer 5.5 or
later.
3. MS Internet Explorer 6.0 (Window 98/Me) -- A band
may be imaged when printing web pages containing CSS
(Cascading Style Sheet) Level 1 objects in HTML.
4. MS Internet Explorer 5.x/6.x -- Some graphics (GIF)
may not be imaged properly.
5. MS Word -- When you open an existing Word document,
Word passes its default media size on to the printer
driver rather than using the media size specified
for the document.
Therefore, if you want to scale a document defined
for one media size to print on another media size,
use the following procedure:
Go to File/Page Setup and open the Page Setup dialog,
then close by clicking the OK button.
6. MS Word -- In case you combine "Manual Double-sided",
"Collate" and "Copies (more than two)", the printing
may not be normal.
In this case, please set "Copies" to "1".
7. MS Word -- In case of Network Sharing, "Combination",
"Watermark", "Overlay", and "Manual Double-Sided" may
not be valid.
8. MS Excel -- The back side of "Manual Double-Sided" may
not be printed normally.
In this case, please select the Application's "Collate".
9. Adobe Reader -- In case you combine "Manual Double-Sided",
"Collate" and "Copies (more than two)", the printing may
not be normal.
In this case, please use Adobe Reader 7.0 or later, or
set "Copies" to "1".
============================================================
III. CONNECTIVITY
1. USB -- If the PC is started before the printer is
turned on, the printer status may be offline. Please
unselect the "Use Printer Offline" printer setting
to resolve this problem (Choose Start>Settings>Printers
[and Faxes] and then right-click on the PagePro 1400W
printer icon).
============================================================
IV. PRINTER DRIVER
1. Canceling Job -- If a paper jam occurs and you have
canceled printing job by pushing panel button,
the next job on the printer spooler may also get canceled.
2. Canceling Job -- During printing the last page, you
cannot cancel the job.
3. Collation -- In case you print with "Manual Double-Sided"
or "Booklet", please do not select the Application's
Collation.
4. Easy Set -- The display of Driver Set may not match
that of "Easy Set".
Please choose the displayed "Easy Set" again.
5. Easy Set -- In case of Network Sharing, the items of
Easy Setting Registration List may not be displayed
normally.
6. Jam Recovery -- If a media jam occurs while you are
manually duplexing the back of a sheet of paper,
the printer cancels the currently printing job. If
this occurs, you should reprint both sides.
7. Job order -- If a print job is canceled and other jobs
have been spooled, the order of the other jobs may be
changed.
8. Overlays -- Overlay files must be printed at the same
resolution at which they were created. In other
words, if you create an overlay file at 600 dpi, any
documents with which you use this overlay should
also be printed at 600 dpi. If you print the overlay
at a different resolution, it is automatically
resized and, therefore, placed incorrectly on the
printed pages.
9. Overlays -- Overlay files (*.prn) must be created with
a PagePro 1400W driver. If you try to use an overlay
file created with another driver, the file will not
print.
10. Overlays -- Printing a file with an overlay uses twice
the virtual memory of regular printing. Therefore, it
is recommended that you increase your PC's virtual
memory.
Please refer to the OS help for how to increase the
virtual memory.
11. Printer Port (Windows 98/Me) -- Do not delete the USB
port while the PagePro 1400W printer driver is
installed.
12. Zoom(Windows 98/Me) -- If the Zoom is set to over
389%, blank page(s) may be printed. Please choose a
lower driver resolution or scaling percentage to
resolve this problem.
13. Uninstallation -- If you uninstall the printer
driver, you must restart the PC to complete the
uninstallation. Otherwise, some files are locked by
the Windows operating system and therefore cannot be
deleted.
14. Booklet Printing -- If you print a file which includes
both Portrait and Landscape with "Booklet" on the
Layout tab, this may cause the pages to print out of
order.
15. In case you use "Proof then Print", please set the
Application's "Collation" to OFF.
16. On some fonts, few noises may be printed with 600dpi.
In this case, please print with 1200dpi.
17. Network Sharing -- Please open all Server's Printer
Properties tabs and use it after installing Printer
Driver.
18. Network Sharing -- The following functions may be unable
to use when you use the printer in the client environment:
- Create/Edit a custom paper
- Overlay
- Create a new watermark and edit (You can use the existing
watermarks.)
============================================================
V. STATUS DISPLAY
1. "Fuser Jam" message -- The Status Display displays a
"Fuser Jam" error message if the printer's top cover
is opened when the printer is turned on.
2. Printer Name Change -- When the printer's name is
changed, you must restart your PC in order to work
with the Status Display correctly.
3. Restriction of use -- Status Display cannot be used in any
of the following cases:
- Setting sharing configuration
- Using in the client environment
