S o l v i n g P r o b l e m s 42 U s e r ‘ s G u i d e 3. System printouts: Is the SYSTEM indicator on? No: The Intermate L X T-04 is not correctly connected to the system , or the power-up routine has been disturbed. Restart the interface (power-off/power-on).
S o l v i n g P r o b l e m s I n t e r m a t e L X T - 0 4 43 Corrupted P rintouts This is generally caused by selecting a Printer Driv er not m atching y our printer. The control com m ands are then m isinterpreted by the printer, causing corrupted printouts.
S o l v i n g P r o b l e m s 44 U s e r ‘ s G u i d e 4. Has the print job been released from the host? Check that Vary On has been made and that the print job has been released from the print queue. Ask y our System Manager. 5. Is the twinax line terminated? The last unit on the twinax line m ust be terminated.
S o l v i n g P r o b l e m s I n t e r m a t e L X T - 0 4 45 1. Make sure that y our printer is on-line. 2. Set the address s witch to ' 9', and wait for approx. 3 seconds until the SYSTEM indicator starts to flash. You are now in the Test Mode.
S o l v i n g P r o b l e m s 46 U s e r ‘ s G u i d e 3. Select position '4' for sy stem hexdum p, or position '3' for ASCII hexdum p. 4. Repeat y our print job. The data is now printed in hexadecima l f orm . 5. Set the address s witch to ' 9' when the printout is com pleted.
S o l v i n g P r o b l e m s I n t e r m a t e L X T - 0 4 47 BE-BAR CODE ERROR Incorrect or insuff icient bar code definition. The bar code must be specified with five values. See Section 4 .
