Claris Works print problems
-
I have a newly acquired Epson SC800 colour printer which works perfectly on every occasion except for a Claris Works 5 spread sheet flow-chart I have drawn up which covers 6 A4 pages and uses 137K of RAM. On the print command it shows the two striped bars and a black bar for a split second which disappears with no follow up printing. I am using the spreadsheet to give me a large sheet to draw on, using the drawing tools to give me a flexible arrangement of rectangles with text. I have checked Get Info for that file but there is no panel showing its memory allocation so I have been unable to try altering the memory which seems to be the most likely problem. My computer is a Macintosh Power 8600/200.
This is probably occurring because Claris Works is having trouble coping with a spreadsheet of that size. This happens on many other applications and the work around solution is to reduce the size of the document. I suggest you do this by finding out where the pages start and end and then just create six new documents and put each separate page in a new document and print them separately (NB: Do not open all of the documents at once when printing. Only open one at a time otherwise you will still have the same problem).
