Additional information, operational tips, and work-arounds
===================================================================
+ Windows(R) Plug and Play (PnP)
If you connect your printer to your Windows computer via a Parallel
port or USB port, we recommend that you perform a PnP installation
of the PostScript printer driver, rather than using the menu
application to launch the Adobe installer. PnP will form a lasting
association between the driver and the printer, which will be
recognized thereafter. If you use the Adobe installer, you may
occasionally see messages informing you that Windows has detected a
"new" device (the printer) and wishes to install it, despite the
fact that it was already installed. Performing a PnP installation
will avoid or get rid of these messages. For details, please see
the Elite Color 16 Series Getting Started Guide.
+ Print queue problems with Mac OS(TM) 8.6 desktop printers
There is a problem in Mac OS 8.6, unrelated to GCC printers, where
desktop printers may occasionally stop functioning properly. If you
open the desktop printer by double clicking on it, you will see
your print job in the bottom field of the print queue window, but
it will not print. You can work around this problem using any one
of the following methods:
- Restart your Macintosh.
- Drag the desktop printer to the Trash and create another. See
the Elite Color 16 Series Getting Started Guide for information on
creating desktop printers.
- Set the printer to print in the foreground, rather than the
background. In the Print dialog box, click the pop-up menu that
shows the word "General", and select Background Printing. Then
select the option "Print in: Foreground (no spool file)", and click
Save Settings at the bottom of the dialog box. You only need to do
this once for each desktop printer. See the Mac Help Center for
more details on this option (search for "background printing").
- Upgrade to Mac OS 9 or later.
