Using a PostScript error handler
The error handling utility is useful for diagnosing problems when a job doesn't print. This utility installs a PostScript error-handling function in the printer to help determine the cause of some PostScript printing problems. PostScript errors are printed on a page with other status information when an error occurs. This utility can be useful to programmers for debugging PostScript code.

To turn on the error handler, follow the instructions below. To turn off the error handler, turn the printer off, wait 15 seconds, and turn the printer on again. Alternately, refer to the Phaser 350 On-line Reference Guide for instructions on resetting the printer to turn off the error handler. Use the following utility files for your computer type:

Macintosh file name PC file name
Tek Error Handler and Apple Printer Utility

TEKEHAND.PS

Macintosh users

  1. Refer to Using the Macintosh Installer for instructions on installing the utility files from the printer's CD-ROM.

  2. Select the appropriate printer in the Chooser.

  3. Locate the Apple Printer Utility in the PhaserTools folder on your hard disk, and double-click its icon to start the application.

  4. Choose Download PostScript File from the Utilities menu.

  5. Select the Tek Error Handler file from the list, then click Open. (This file was installed in the Printer Utilities folder inside the PhaserTools folder.)

  6. At the prompt Save PostScript output as: you are asked for a file name for saving printer output. Use either the default name given in the edit box or type a new name. Click Save to send the file to the printer.

  7. If no output is returned by the printer, the Apple Printer Utility displays a dialog box; click OK continue.

PC and workstation users

  1. Locate the utility files in the PHSR350 directory on the printer's CD-ROM.
