* | Do not extract CD-ROM before the installation is finished. Or else, system error might occur. |
* | Bi-directional network communication may requires SmartDeviceMonitor for Client. It is up to the printer you use. |
* | SmartDeviceMonitor for Client cannot be run on Windows x64. Therefore, bi-directional network communication is only available with the 32-bit driver(It is up to the printer you use). |
* | Remote Install is not available. |
* | During the driver installation, Windows may suggest to keep the newer module already installed in Windows. Please select "Yes" to use the newer module. |
* | The CD-ROM installer causes the Spooler service to temporarily stop. We do not recommend using the CD-ROM installer on a member server of a Microsoft cluster environment because other services that rely on the Spooler might also stop causing a failover to occur. Instead, the Add Printer Wizard should be used. If this is done, the Spooler service will not stop. |
* | To avoid problems in general, make sure that there is plenty of free disk space. |
* | With some applications (e.g. CorelDRAW, Visio), complicated images may take a long time to print when the "Graphic Mode" is "Vector". For faster printing, choose "Raster"(Graphics Mode) and/or "Print as graphics"(TrueType Mode) on the "Print Quality" tab. |
* | If the printer driver language differs from that of the Operating System, characters may not be printed properly or the characters on the printer driver may not be displayed properly. |

As a workaround, change the print settings so that any one of the above conditions are not met. Note: "cover" = Front Cover, Back Cover or Chaptering Pages |
