Troubleshooting USB

Problem Solutions
The printer is not recognized auto­matically.
Windows has already configured the USB settings.
Turn off the power of the printer, reconnect the USB cable, and then turn it on again.
Open Windows' Device Manager, and then, under [Univer- sal Serial Bus controllers], remove any conflicting devices. Conflicting devices have a [!] or [?] icon by them. Take care not to accidentally remove required devices. For de­tails, see Windows Help.
When using Windows 2000/XP or Windows Server 2003, an erroneous device is displayed under [USB Controller] in the [Device Manager] dialog box.
56
Windows ME and the printer can­not be connected.
Download USB Printing Support from the supplier's web­site.
Search the model name you use on the supplier's website, and download USB Printing Support.

Making Option Settings for the Printer

Make option settings for the printer using the printer driver when bidirectional communication is disabled.
Reference
For details about making option settings for the printer, see p.64 “If Bidirec­tional Communication is Disabled”.

Conditions for Bidirectional Communication

Bidirectional communication allows information about paper size and feed di­rection settings to be automatically sent to the printer. You can check printer sta­tus from your computer.
• Bidirectional communication is supported by Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows NT 4.0.
• If you use the RPCS printer driver and bidirectional communication is en­abled under Windows 2000, the [Change Accessories...] tab is unavailable.
Note
The RPCS printer driver supports bidirectional communications and updates
the printer status automatically.
The PCL printer driver supports bidirectional communications. You can up-
date printer status manually.
The PostScript 3 printer driver does not support bidirectional communica-
tions.
To support bidirectional communication, the following conditions must be met:
When connected with parallel cables
• The computer must support bidirectional communication.
• The printer must support bidirectional communication.
• The interface cable must support bidirectional communication.
• The printer must be connected to the computer using the standard parallel
cables and parallel connectors.
• Under Windows 2000, [Enable bidirectional support] must be selected, and
[Enable printer pooling] must not be selected on the [port] tab with the RPCS printer driver.
62
Making Option Settings for the Printer
When connected with the network
• The printer must support bidirectional communication.
• SmartDeviceMonitor for Client included on the CD-ROM must be in-
stalled, and TCP/IP must be used.
• Under Windows 2000, [Enable bidirectional support] must be selected, and
[Enable printer pooling] must not be selected on the [port] tab with the RPCS printer driver.
• In addition to the above, one of the following conditions must also be met:
• The SmartDeviceMonitor for Client port and the TCP/IP protocol must be used.
• The standard TCP/IP port must be used without changing the default port name (for Windows 2000/XP and Windows Server 2003).
• Microsoft TCP/IP print IPv4 address must be specified for use (for Win­dows NT 4.0).
• IPP port name must include the IPv4 address when using the IPP pro­tocol.
When connected with USB
The printer must be connected to the computer's USB port using the USB in­terface cable. The computer must support bidirectional communication.

Note
Install SmartDeviceMonitor for Client from the CD-ROM provided.
