PostScript error could have occurred.A PostScript error message includes a PostScript error type, which defines the type of error it is. It also includes an offending command, which usually indicates the specific part of the PostScript code that the interpreter couldn't read. The offending command usually indicates the command that caused the problem. Some PostScript errors point you error undefined offending command stack xerox right to the cause of the problem, and some get you looking in the right direction.Example of a PostScript error:%%[Error: ; OffendingCommand: ]%%For example, the PostScript error %%[Error: dictfull; OffendingCommand: def ]%% contains the PostScript error type "dictfull" and the offending command "def." The error type indicates that the dictionary contains the maximum number of entries. The offending command is the last command the PostScript interpreter tried to process, "def," which defines a new word in the dictionary. View or print a PostScript error message If you think a PostScript error has occurred, but it doesn't appear onscreen or in your printout, you can sometimes view or print the error message.

solutions Often a corrupted image leads to this type or error. You can easily trace which image causes the problem from applications like QuarkXPress that offending command nostringval allow you to print jobs without the images. If the PostScript error

and try printing again. Again halve the amount of images and print again and keep doing this until you located the bad one. Updating your application and/or printer driver to the https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-postscript-errors.html latest release could also solve issues with an offending command ‘Image' error. If the info below doesn't point to a more specific work-around, try the basic troubleshooting tips. PostScript error Limitcheck If you get a PostScript error ‘limitcheck' offending command ‘image', an image in your document is too large, its resolution is too high or it cannot be rotated. Reduce the size https://www.prepressure.com/postscript/troubleshooting/errors/image or resolution, rotate the image at a different angle or rotate it in an application like Photoshop. Some older level 2 versions of PostScript RIPs as well as Acrobat Distiller 4.0 (and 4.05 and probably 3.x) cannot handle copydot files in which the number of pixels exceeds 32000 in either direction. Using such big copydot files (eg larger than about 33 centimeters for a 2400 dpi copydot) can lead to a PostScript error "limitcheck" offending command "image". If you get a PostScript error "limitcheck" offending command "image" when printing from InDesign 1.0, the document probably contains a multitone EPS (duotone, tritone,.. ) that uses a spot color. To get around the error, you can either perform the colour separation in InDesign itself (deselect "In-RIP" in the separations tab) or you should upgrade your RIP to Adobe PostScript version 3011 or later. PostScript error IOerror An ‘ioerror', offending command ‘image' or ‘colorimage' points to an incorrect amount of data in an image or it indicates that the printer's PS interpreter reads beyond the end of the job while rendering an image.
