    My StyleWriter II will not print from my computer. When I do a self test, it just prints a blank sheet of paper and the error light comes on. Why?

DISCUSSION


    Verify the type of cable that is connected the StyleWriter II. Make sure that it is an Apple System Peripheral 8 cable (M0197LL/B) or compatible as described in the StyleWriter II manual. When a network cable, such as a PhoneNet or LocalTalk RJ11 Connector, is connected to the printer the symptoms you mentioned appear.

    To verify the problem is cable related follow these steps:

    1) Turn the printer off
    2) Unplug the printer cable
    3) Press and hold down the printer power button until the yellow light
    turns off.

    The printer should print a self-test. If it prints the self test, the problem was cable related. If the StyleWriter II does not print a self-test with the cables disconnected, have the printer looked at by an Authorized Apple Service Provider.
