Q1 
In the PSAdmin,
my printer status is always shown off line
when my USB printer is attached to my multi-port
print server.¡¨ How can I get my print server
¡§on line¡¨? |
| A:
As three ports of print server have to be
attached with printers, the status of the
print server will be shown as "on line".
Howerver, if all configuration is correct,
print server still could work fine even shown
as off-line. |

|
| Q3
My printer can¡¦t print out. What
should I do? |
|
| A:
Please try to setup as following and
see how it works,
1. Please uninstall the original
printer driver and reinstall the driver
from the "Add a printer"
Wizard in the Printer and Faxes, instead
of directly executing printer-accompanied
installer Setup.exe.
2. Change the "print processor"
to the default "WinPrint >
RAW".
3. Disable the bi-directional function
of the printer.
If the print server still can¡¦t work
with your printer, please make sure
if your printer is host-based printer.
So far our print server is incompatible
with host-based printer. If your printer
is non-GDI printer, please contact us
for further assistance.
A: Repotec print server is designed
for the command printer language PCL
and Postscript so Repotec print server
could be able to compatible with most
printers. These listed printers have
been tested by our testing center and
also works fine with our print server.
