Sharp MX-M1100 Operating Guide

Are you using a type of paper (tab 
paper, punch paper, etc.) that can only 
be loaded in a fixed orientation?

When the image size and paper size are the same but 
the orientations are different, the orientation of the 
image is automatically rotated to match the paper. 
However, when the paper can only be loaded in a fixed 
orientation, this may result in the image being printed 
upside down. In this event, rotate the image 180 
degrees before printing.
For the 180 degrees rotate setting, see "

Is the correct binding position selected 
for two-sided printing?

When two-sided printing is performed, every other page 
is printed upside down when tablet binding is selected 
for the binding position. Be sure to set the appropriate 
binding position.
For two-sided printing and booklet-style and tablet-style 
bindings, see "

" (page 27).

Is your computer or the machine in an 
unstable state?

If little free space remains in the memory or hard drive of 
your computer, or many jobs have been spooled on the 
machine and it has little free memory remaining, printed 
text may turn into nonsense characters. In this situation, 
cancel printing, restart your computer and the machine, 
and try printing again.
To cancel printing
Windows:

Double-click the printer icon that appears at the lower 
right of the task bar and click "Cancel All Documents" 
(or "Purge Print Documents") in the [Printer] menu.

Macintosh:

Double-click the name of the machine in the printer 
list, select the job that you wish to delete, and delete 
it. (In Mac OS 9, double-click the printer icon on the 
desktop, select the print job that you wish to delete, 
and delete it.)

At the machine:

See "

" (page 70).

If nonsense characters are still printed after restarting, 
ask your administrator to lengthen the timeout setting of 
"I/O Timeout" in the system settings (administrator).

➞ System Settings (Administrator) > "Printer Settings" > 

"Interface Settings" > "I/O Timeout"

* If nonsense characters are still printed after taking the 

above measures, remove and then reinstall the printer 
driver.
