Q: What is CAPT?

Q: Why can I not print a test page using the test button on AXIS 1650?
A: It is not possible to print a test-page on a CAPT printer.

Q: Does Axis 1650 support HP emulation and does it work with the HP utilities?
A: No, AXIS 1650 does not support HP emulation or work with the HP utilities.
Q: I get 'DEP error' when I try to print on Windows XP SP2, what should I do?
A: You must turn off Data Execution Prevention (DEP) for the specific program which causes the DEP error. Follow the instructions below to disable the DEP function for the program that concerns printing:
To turn Data Execution Prevention off for a program you must be logged on as administrator or member of the Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings might also prevent you from completing this procedure.
1. Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click System, this will open the System Properties.
2. Click the Advanced tab and, under Performance, click Settings.
3. Click the Data Execution Prevention tab.
4. In the 'Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select' list, do one of the following:

To turn off DEP for a program, select the check box next to the program name and click OK.

If the name of the program doesn't appear in the list, click Add, navigate to your Program Files folder, select the program's executable file which will have an .exe file extension, and click OK.

Q: The message “Printer not responding” is shown by the Canon Status Monitor for Canon BJ printers and BJ based MFPs. Why?
It is not possible to network the Canon Status Monitor application for Canon BJ printers and BJ based MFPs, so to avoid the erroneous “Printer not responding” message shown by the Canon Status Monitor (the message is shown although it is possible to print), please disable the connection status reporting under Options. 

Properties > Maintenance > View printer status > Options

Q: What will happen if I don't configure WINS properly?
A: Having WINS enabled but not correctly configured could cause a memory leak and eventually a Network Connection Error. The WINS parameter should either be disabled or, if enabled, it should be configured with a valid WINS address.
