Try to reduce the print resolution. (See Advanced tab in the Software User’s Guide

‘Unable to write to LPT1’, ‘LPT1
already in use’ or ‘MFC is Busy’
error message appears.
Make sure that the machine is on (plugged into the AC power outlet and the power
switch turned on) and that it is connected directly to the computer using the IEEE-
1284 bi-directional parallel cable. The cable must not go through another
peripheral device (such as a Zip Drive, external CD-ROM Drive, or switch box).
Make sure that the LCD does not show an error message.
Make sure no other device drivers, which also communicate through the parallel
port, are running automatically when you turn on the computer (such as, drivers
for Zip Drives, external CD-ROM Drive, etc.) Suggested areas to check: (Load=,
Run=command lines in the win.ini file or the Setup Group.)
Check with your computer manufacturer to confirm that the computer’s parallel
port settings in the BIOS are set to support a bi-directional machine; i.e. (Parallel
Port Mode – ECP)
