TOPIC



    I have four Color StyleWriter 2400 printers on my network. When I send a print job to a printer while it is asleep or busy printing another job, the print job I sent is sent to another printer at random. What causes this?

DISCUSSION


    You must rename each printer. What you see is normal if the printers are named the same (default is "Color Stylewriter 2400"). If one printer is sleeping or busy it starts printing to one of the other Color StyleWriter 2400 on the network. If the printers have unique names, a standard error message appears indicating that the printer is busy and the file will print soon.
