Brother HL-8e Paper Jams With LaserMaster Def |

Problem
Symptoms: The customer has a Brother HL-8e printer with the LaserMaster LX6 board installed. He is trying to print legal size paper manually with the LaserMaster LX6 driver, but the paper keeps jamming. In Folio Memo ID P51_581, it says to insert some codes into the CONFIG.LM file. We followed the instructions exactly, then ran DDPI again and tried to print legal manually. The piece of paper pulled through, but jammed at the 8.5" x 11" part, and printed out the following codes: ^[&l2H. Those were the exact codes which we entered into the CONFIG.LM file. The printer is in Series II mode. When we change the driver to Brother HL-8e, the manual legal works fine. Solutions: The customer has since bought a legal size tray and is working beautifully. LaserMaster, when you select manual feed, only sends down the code for manual feed and not the paper size. If he wants manual feed legal not to jam in the printer I told him he could increase the form size on his printer to legal size. This might be a better suggestion then changing the code in the CONFIG.LM file, because if you are not careful you could lose the first escape character (27), which will cause the printer to not recognize code string. This was probably what happened in your case. |
