The media end was detected while printing was in progress. | Use the following methods. (1) Use a USB cable no longer than 3 m. | |
Data may be cleared unexpectedly if there is a communication problem with the USB interface while print data is being sent to the printer. | ||
DRV: An error has occurred during output (W). <Error details> | A USB communication fault occurred while the print command was being sent to the printer. | This problem is more likely to occur when using non-recommended configurations such as those below.
|
If you are already using the recommended setup, use the following methods. | ||
Cannot connect to the printer with USB2.0 Hi-Speed mode. Check that the PC USB port, USB cable, and USB hub all support USB2.0. | Unable to connect in USB 2.0 Hi-Speed mode with the USB connection to the printer. | Check the USB 2.0 connection configuration. |
Cannot get information for the calculation of the consumption of ink from the printer status. | An attempt was made to RIP while the printer was not connected. With certain Mimaki printer models, the printer must be connected to allow calculation of ink consumption. | Check the connection to the printer. |
If ink consumption does not need to be calculated, disable [Calculate Ink Consumption] in [Environments] - [Option] - [Job Control]. | ||
Cannot execute the Job because the media width is zero.
| An attempt was made to print when no media was installed in the printer or when [Media Size] was set to [Manual Input: 0 mm]. | Install the media in the printer, then reacquire the printer status. |
When entering [Fit to Media Width], be sure to set a valid size. | ||

This error also occurs when an alpha channel TIFF has been imported. Remove the alpha channel. | ||
No restorable printer is registered (Model name). | A job could not be restored when restoring the backup job file on the [Backup] screen because the printer for the backed-up job is not registered. | Add a printer with the same conditions as the printer for the backed-up job in [Printer Management]. |
Cannot restore the file because it was backed up by newer version of RasterLink7. Please update RasterLink7 to [Version No.] or later. | An attempt was made to restore a job backed up with a version of RasterLink7 newer than the version of RasterLink7 installed when restoring a backup job file on the [Backup] screen. | Backup job files created using a newer version of RasterLink7 cannot be restored in an older version of RasterLink7. |
Cannot restore the job because the necessary profile has not been installed. Please exit RasterLink7 and install the following profile by ProfileManager and then restore the job again. | A job could not be restored when restoring the backup job file on the [Backup] screen because the profile used by the backup job is not installed. | Exit RasterLink7, then install the profile specified in ProfileManager in accordance with the message. |
The free space of the working drive (Drive Name) is less than the setting size (## GB). Please delete unnecessary jobs or Ripped Data. | The free space on the HDD has fallen below the setting ([Environments] - [Option] - [Disk] - [Disk Space to Keep]). | Delete any unwanted jobs to free up space on the hard disk. |
Cannot operate the job which is not ready. | Execution was set for a job being executed before execution was completed. | Wait until the job has been fully executed. |
No operation applies to locked job. | An attempt was made to change the attributes of or to arrange, create a plate, compose, or delete a locked job. | Unlock in [Properties] before operating. |
The changes were not saved because one or more jobs has been locked. | An attempt was made to select a locked job and open the Edit screen. Changes made on the Edit screen will not be saved when switching to a different screen. | If you wish to edit the job settings, unlock in [Properties]. |
The print condition in effect is not the recommended print condition (recommended drawing mode) of the profile. It may compromise quality if you continue with printing. | This appears when the print settings (number of paths, overprinting, print direction, fast printing) do not correspond to the recommended print settings for the profile and the UV irradiation value inside the profile cannot be obtained. |
|
Selecting [Yes] aborts printing. | ||
Selecting [No] resumes printing and uses the printer UV irradiation setting. | ||
The specification method of the printing page range is not suitable. | The page specification specified invalid characters, or the upper limit of input pages exceeded the total number of pages. | Set the page configuration while taking care not to use "-" twice and characters other than "-" or ",", or to specify an upper limit for the input pages exceeding the total number of pages. |

Cannot Speed-priority Composite jobs with different device profile. | Cannot Speed-priority Composite jobs with different device profile. Jobs were combined using the same conditions as for [Quality]. | When combining using the same conditions as for [Speed], apply the same profile to all of the jobs to be combined, then combine again using [Speed]. |
Cannot Speed-priority Composite jobs with different resolutions. | Cannot Speed-priority Composite jobs with different resolutions. Jobs were combined using the same conditions as for [Quality]. | When combining using the same conditions as for [Speed], set the same resolution for all of the jobs to be combined, then combine again using [Speed]. |
Server is busy, so cannot connect to the database. Please wait for a while and try again. Please wait for a while and try again. | An attempt was made to activate a license while the server was undergoing maintenance. | Wait a while and try again later. |
Re-activate is needed. | The license may not have been activated. | Deactivate the license as described in the operation manual, then repeat license activation. |
The PC configuration has been changed after your activation. | If the license was activated via a LAN cable connection, but RasterLink7 was started using a wireless LAN connection |
|
If the license was activated via a wireless LAN connection, but RasterLink7 was started using a LAN cable connection | ||
Because the PC configuration changed (such as motherboard replacement) | ||
Error occurred during activation. | Errors may occur with the following network connections:
| Connect using a LAN cable for license activation. Do not use PPP connection or USB connection network adapters. |
This serial key is already used on another PC. | This error occurs if a serial key already used for activation is reused without first deactivating the license. (For example, if you attempt to install RasterLink7 and activate the license while another activated PC already exists) | Deactivate the license on the activated PC, then activate the license on the new PC. |
An overflow error occurred. | This occurs if the image size for outline extraction in RasterLinkTools is too large. | If outline extraction is not possible, reduce the image size. |
