memory left for system to 10000 KB. You may need to set a higher figure for
large page sizes.
On Macintosh computers, depending upon when the memory shortage is
detected, you may also see the operating system display a warning dialog box or
the computer may hang before being able to display a message.
1.11.2 Printer-specific messages and symptoms
In most cases, you can clear any problems during output by aborting the output from
the RIP then clearing any partly printed media from the printer. Some of the messages
and symptoms described below require alternative cures. Other messages are warn-
ings and do not require any action.
Color ink level = 92%
This message is a warning rather than an error message. It appears periodically
and reports as a percentage the amount of ink available in the printer. The text in
italics is replaced by the ink color, for example Cyan.
Interrogating device for size of media loaded...
This message appears when the RIP is trying to get media length and width
values from the printer. If this information is available, the media width and
length values are listed in the RIP monitor. Otherwise, the default values speci-
fied in the Page Layout dialog box are used, which are also listed in the RIP
monitor.
Media Width = # decipoints (# inches, # mm)
This message appears when the RIP has been able to get the width of the media
from the printer. The width of the media is specified in decipoints, inches and
millimeters, where
# is replaced by specific values. The value from the printer
overrides the default value specified in the Page Layout dialog box.
Media Length = # decipoints (# inches, # mm)
This message appears when the RIP has been able to get the length of the media
from the printer. The length of the media is specified in decipoints, inches and
millimeters, where # is replaced by specific values. The value from the printer
overrides the default value specified in the Page Layout dialog box.
