Using the Printer with a Computer22
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
This chapter provides the basic information necessary to use the printer connected to a computer. For more information
on the functions available, consult the User Guide by selecting Start > Programs > Olivetti.
Other information can be obtained by selecting Help in the dialogue boxes.
Before you begin:
1 Make sure that the printer and computer are connected correctly, and that the CD software has been installed
successfully on the computer as indicated in the Installation Guide supplied with the printer.
2 Load the paper on which to print.
3 Make sure that the out-of-ink indicators on the front panel are switched off. If either is not, you are advised to
replace the corresponding ink cartridge. See "Replacing the Ink Cartridges" for more information.
THE PRINTER STATUS MONITOR
The printer Status Monitor provides information on the current printer status. It is installed when you install the
software contained on the “Installation” CD.
The Status Monitor displays automatically at the beginning of a print or copy job:
•
A graphical representation of the percentage of the print or copy job already completed.
•
The number of pages already printed, or copied, out of the total number of pages in the job.
•
A graphical representation of the estimated amount of ink, as a percentage, still available in the colour and black
cartridges.
•
The possibility to cancel the print or copy job.
•
The address of the manufacturer’s web site where you can access information on purchasing new ink cartridges.
The Status Monitor closes automatically at the end of a print or copy job, but you can close it at any time.
If you close the Status Monitor during a print or copy job, it is automatically redisplayed.
•
When the printer is in the out-of-ink or almost out-of-ink conditions. A coloured exclamation mark indicates the
cartridge in a low-ink condition (colour, black, or both), and the relative percentages.
Pop-ups are displayed with the address of the manufacturer’s web site where you can access information on purchasing
new ink cartridges.
The printer Status Monitor also displays an error pop-up when:
•
•
One or both cartridges are missing.
•
The scanner unit is raised.
•
The keyboard is closed and a print or copy operation is started.
•
The printer runs out of paper.

An incorrect paper size is detected.
•
•
The printer is busy with another task.
•
•
The printer is not recognised.
•
•
The ink cartridge carriage is jammed.
•
•
The printer is not working (system error).
The pop-up windows displayed also allow you to choose whether you want to continue printing or to cancel the print
operation.
