LaserWriter IINT: -8132 Error Is Manual TimeOut Error
What is a -8132 error? I get it once in a while when I'm doing a large (200)
envelope print merge to a LaserWriter IINT using Microsoft Works 2.0. When an
envelope misfeeds and jams the printer (which happens with great frequency), by
the time I pull out the paper tray, remove the jammed envelope, and open and
shut the top to clear the error, one of two things happens:
- The print merge (which doesn't create a temp file) drops several envelopes.
- The print job aborts, displaying a dialog box with the message "Printing
error -8132."
I've looked at the error codes sections in "Inside Macintosh", "Inside
AppleTalk", and called Microsoft. They claim it is a network error, but I
didn't find it in "Inside AppleTalk".
The error -8132 means "manual timeout error", which, applied to your situation,
fits perfectly. Once you manage to keep the LaserWriter from jamming on the
envelopes, you should no longer experience this error.
