Ever since installing my printer on Windows 95 or Windows 98 via parallel, I am getting error messages when trying to print. The printer will print a blank sheet, then an error message such as the one below:
This error is caused by a setting within the driver's Properties section relating to Bi-Directional Parallel support. The printer does not support this feature, but it is the Windows default setting. To eliminate the error, you should disable bi-directional support as follows:
-Go to the Start menu, and down to Settings. -Select Printers, and single-click the printer icon to highlight it. -Go up to File and down to Properties. -Select Details, and click the Spool Settings button. -Select "Disable Bi-Directional Parallel Support for this Printer". -Click OK, then Apply, then OK to accept the changes.
