of the host computer. To check the plotter settings, use the setup sheet.
(Instructions ' User's Guide, chapter 1.) D Also check your interface cable
and connections. D This error may also occur if you send a drawing for print
using a Windows driver when the
Fast Direct to Print option is turned OFF
in the Windows Printer Control Panel. You should either turn the Fast
Direct to Print
option ON, or send the drawing to a file and print the file
from the MSĆDOS command line through the serial port. D If the host
computer is an HP 712 workstation, you may have some problems using
baudrates of 19200 and 38400. Check if recent service notes have a solution.

in the host computer. D Replace the electronics module.
