Electrical Interference
Something is generating electrical noise that may be interfering with the normal operation
of the printer. The interference generator may be either external or internal to the printer.
If you are using a parallel connection, make sure it is fully shielded and grounded at both
ends.
Step Actions and Questions Yes No
1 EXTERNAL NOISE
Check if there is other electrical equipment, such as electrical
generators, radio transmitters, or devices using electrical
motors, within ten feet of the printer.
Shut off the other electrical equipment or relocate the printer at
least twenty feet away from the other devices.

2 OPTION ISOLATION
If the printer has options installed, such as a Duplex Unit or an
Optional Feeder, remove each option one at a time, and see
how the printer operates without that option installed.
