GETTING PRINT TO PRINT IN VALDOCS 1.1X

At times the Valdocs 1.1x printing does not want to print.  Here
is a list of a few things that you can do to try and get it
printing again.

ASSUMPTIONS: This section assumes that you are already in the
Editor to start.


See if the spooler is working

1.   Since the printing spooler of Valdocs 1.1x also displays the
     time, the easiest way to see if the spooler is functioning
     correctly is to check the time.  If the time is being
     displayed, do steps 2 through 6 only and skip to step 11.

Getting into SETUP

2.   Press MENU.

3.   Select <M>enu of Applications.

4.   Select <L>EFT Drive.

5.   Select SETUP.SYS.

6.   Since there are no commands or parameters needed for SETUP,
     press RETURN again.

Turning the time (and spooler) on

7.   Once in the SETUP program select <D>ate/Time.

8.   Select <C>lock Display until it shows Clock on in VALDOCS
     and TPM.

9.   If the time does not appear in the lower right hand corner
     of the display within one minute, go to step 18.

10.  Press UNDO.

Check the printer driver selected

11.  Select <P>rinter type.

12.  Make certain that the printer driver matches your printer. 
     If there is no printer driver that will match your printer,
     select <O>ther.

13.  Press UNDO until you return to the Editor and proceed with
     your printing.  If Valdocs 1.1x still does not want to
     print, go to the next step.

Make sure the printer is on line

14.  NOTE: Some printers may have an OFF LINE, READY or SELECT
     button instead of an ON LINE button.  Use that button for
     the next two steps.

     Press the ON LINE button.

15.  If your printer does not start to print right away, press
     the ON LINE button again and go to the next step.

Restarting the spooler

16.  You may find a number to the right of the time display. 
     This is the spooler indicator and shows how many documents
     are waiting to be printed.  If the spooler indicator shows
     that there is at least one document waiting to be printed,
     press the STOP key.

     If there are no documents waiting to be printed, then go to
     step 18.

17.  Since you are only trying to restart the spooler, you do not
     need to stop the printing.  Just press UNDO to get the
     spooler to restart.

The master reset

18.  Like many other features in Valdocs 1.1x the printing
     attributes are recorded in the CMOS clock RAM.  If after
     trying this procedure, you find that you still cannot print,
     you will need to refer to the section "Resetting the CMOS
     Clock RAM for Valdocs" to do a CMOS reset.

Hardware failure

19.  If your printer will not print after doing a CMOS reset, you
     may have a hardware failure.  To get your Epson computer
     and/or printer fixed, call 800/922-8911 and ask for your
     nearest Epson Authorized Service Center.
