Problem
Solutions: There are different combinations you can have with Tandy equipment. The combination will determine if a special cable will be needed in order to print correctly. The following is a general guide to follow: Tandy printer with Tandy computer - will need a Tandy parallel cable Tandy printer with IBM/Compatible - can use regular parallel cable unless otherwise specified Non Tandy printer with Tandy computer - can use regular parallel cable Currently we know that the DMP 300 and DMP 400 both need to have the Tandy parallel cable, when connected to an IBM/Compatible computer. WP PC Printers have indicated that the older printers can use the regular parallel cable. However, the newer printer may require the Tandy parallel. If a customer is just installing their system and they can't get the printer to go on line, this could indicate that they need a different cable. This would only be the case if this is a new installation. If they had been printing before, then they definitely have the right cable and there must be a different problem. |
