APPLIES TO


This article was previously published under Q123991

SYMPTOMS

When you try to print from a Windows 95 computer running the Coactive Network, you receive an "Out of paper" error message.

CAUSE

Microsoft Windows, including Windows for Workgroups 3.1x and Windows 95, does not provide support for the Coactive Network.

STATUS

No workaround is available at this time. For more information, contact Coactive Network technical support.

MORE INFORMATION

The Coactive Network uses an application called Coassistant to make printer connections. Although it appears that this application can "see" the network printer, Windows 95 cannot print to it. The file-sharing portion of the Coactive Network seems to function, and some computers running Windows for Workgroups 3.1x may be able to print to the network printer.

Coactive Network is manufactured by a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
