Using a PostScript error handler
The error handling utility is useful for diagnosing problems when a job 
doesn’t print.  This utility installs a PostScript error-handling function in the 
printer to help determine the cause of some PostScript printing problems.  
PostScript errors are printed on a page with other status information when 
an error occurs.  This utility can be useful to programmers for debugging 
PostScript code.  
To turn on the error handler, follow the instructions below.  To turn off the 
error handler, turn the printer off, wait 15 seconds, and turn the printer on 
again.  Alternately, refer to the on-line manual on the printer’s CD-ROM for 
instructions on resetting the printer to turn off the error handler.  Use the 
following utility files for your computer type:
