For installer: 1. Take care to launch just one instance of the installer. Running more than one instance can cause an unsuitable installation. 2. If install_InfoPrintProC900AFP.app does not run (the process remains hanging), force quit, and rename the package (add or remove a character from package name). b. For InfoPrint Pro C900AFP driver: 1. To fully use the Printer Driver, the InfoPrint Job Ticket Editor (Infoprint JTE) application must be installed on your computer. 2. If another printer instance should be installed, the user has to use the installer. Doing otherwise can result in bad functioning of the Printer Driver. 3. In order to be able to create new tickets and save them in a certain folder on the disk, you must have writing rights for that folder. 4. If your application supports Paper Size in the base driver, please do not use the Manage Custom Sizes... option. Media types from tickets should be used instead. 5. If your application supports Pages per Sheet under Layout pane, please do not use this option. Select n-up option from tickets instead. 6. When selecting a ticket in the Advanced tab, the settings for copies, collate, duplex and orientation from the ticket are not visible in the Print Dialog main window. Although, these settings will be taken into account when printing with the selected ticket. 7. If your application supports Paper Size in the base driver, after a printer is queried for media, the new media types are not visible under Paper Size only after an application restart. Do not print without a ticket before restarting the application. 8. After a printer query, the available input trays will be updated in the Paper Feed pane only after application restart. 9. If your application supports Page Setup from the File menu, please do not use the Manage Custom Sizes... option. When Any Printer is selected from Format for popup button, do not use a paper size than doesn't have an equivalent in the media catalog. 10. For some applications like Safari browser, which have a larger header, under lower resolutions like 1200x800, the driver window is not fully visible on screen. The resolution must be changed to a higher one to be able to view the entire window and press the Print button. 11. If All option is selected for Pages feature in base driver, pressing TAB key will automatically select the From 1 to 1 option. 12.Booklet jobs sent to the Plockmatic Booklet maker are printed with the top of the finished booklet page positioned toward the front of the printer. When the equipment configuration includes a Plockmatic Cover Inserter, then the booklet cover sheets must be loaded into the inserter in a way that is in concert with the way that the pages are printed. This is as follows: Load the cover sheets into the Plockmatic Cover Inserter as follows: - face down - top of the finished booklet cover positioned toward the front of the printer Note that this is different than indicated by the "R" symbol that appears on the Plockmatic Cover Inserter device. 13. Currently Job Ticket Editor supports full cut Tabstock only. c. For Direct Submission Utility: 1. InfoPrint Direct Submission Utility should not be used to submit tickets with Booklet or Text On Tabs media. 2. If the selected ticket location is a read-only directory, new tickets cannot be created. However, tickets from a read-only directory can be edited as long as they are saved using Save As from the Job Ticket Editor in another directory. 3. If you do not have read rights on the ticket location directory, the Ticket List remains empty. 4. If you do not have read rights for a selected ticket, the retrieval of Job Name and Description fails, the ticket is considered invalid and is removed from the Ticket List.
