Summary:

Microsoft PowerPoint slides printed on the Tektronix ColorQuick printer may be truncated when printing in Finder mode. This problem has not been observed when printing under MultiFinder.

For example, during printing, the Tektronix driver interface may continue to indicate on the screen that the print job is being processed as usual, although the actual printing is no longer taking place. At the end of the job, the paper formfeeds as usual, but the image has not been completely printed.

This problem appears to occur only when printing large, multicolor images, such as imported scanned pictures. The problem also appears to occur only when running in Finder mode. To correct this problem, switch to MultiFinder.

For more information, call Tektronix Customer Support at (800) 835-6100 or (503) 627-7111.
