Coupon Printing Problems

What if my coupon would not print?
If the Coupon Activator Plug-in was downloaded, but you were unable to print your coupon check the following:
  • Is the printer turned on? Often the simplest explanation can identify the problem. Turn your printer on and try printing the coupon again by clicking on the original coupon link.

  • Is there sufficient paper in the paper tray? Double check your paper supply and try printing the coupon again by clicking on the original coupon link.

  • Is the printer properly connected to your computer? Often the simplest explaination is a faulty connection. Check the cable connection between your computer and your printer. Try printing the coupon again by clicking on the original coupon link.

  • Are the status lights on the printer indicating problems? Often, if your printer is experiencing problems, a red light will be lit up or blinking on its control panel. Please refer to your printer owner's manual. After following the directions, try printing the coupon again by clicking on the original coupon link.

  • Do you have the Coupon Activator Plug-in properly installed? If you are not certain, please see the "Coupon Activator Plug-in Questions" section of this page.

Coupon Activator Plug-in Questions

Is there another way to print coupons without downloading your Plug-in?
No, the Coupon Activator Plug-in is necessary to ensure the secure printing of coupons. However, it takes less than 2 minutes to download with a 56K connection, will complete installation automatically and has been engineered to run seamlessly with Windows and Mac OS X operating systems. Plus, once installed, it will enable you to print future coupons without the need for additional downloads.

What is a plug-in?
Plug-ins are software programs that extend the capabilities of your browser and other applications. For example, some plug-ins give you the ability to play audio samples, view video movies, view PDF documents or print secure coupons from your personal computer.

BACK TO TOP

Is the plug-in safe to install on my computer?
Yes! The Coupon Activator Plug-in has been engineered to run seamlessly with any Windows computer and Mac computers running Mac OS X.

Most plug-ins are developed by third party companies and are designed to extend the capabilities of the original software application. Apple's QuickTime, Real Media's RealPlayer, and Adobe's Acrobat PDF Reader are all examples of third party software plug-ins. You may have noted that your browser states that it might be "dangerous" to accept the download. This "warning" is simply identifying that this plug-in was not developed by the original software developer.

When you download or run programs from the Internet, you want to know that the program comes from a known, reliable source. That's why, after you click the "accept" or "yes" button to download a program from the Internet to your computer, your browser uses authenticating technology to verify the identity of the program. Authenticating technology verifies that the program has a valid certificate. This feature eliminates the chance of someone misrepresenting a program that is intended to be malicious or intentionally harmful.

What about my privacy?
We value your privacy and the Printer Plug-in is safe and secure. To learn more about our privacy policy please read our Privacy Statement, which is accessible from the promotion's registration page(s).

Does the plug-in work with my computer's operating system?
The Printer Plug-in has been engineered to run seamlessly with any Windows computer and Mac computers running Mac OS X.

BACK TO TOP

What if I got an unexpected error message stating that downloading did not complete?
Please try downloading the plug-in again by re-entering the site from which you were trying to print coupons.

BACK TO TOP

What if my browser doesn't allow me to download plug-ins?
One of the following may be occurring:

  • You are on a networked computer that does not allow plug-in downloads. Check with your network administrator.
  • Your security settings are too high. If you are using Internet Explorer, at the top of your browser, please go to "Tools", then "Internet Options", then "Security". Your settings should be at "Medium" or lower. If you are using IE 6.0, your privacy settings also need to be "Medium" or lower.
  • If you are using Netscape Navigator, your software installation option may be disabled. At the top of your browser, go to the "Edit", then click on the "+" next to "Advanced" and click on the "Software Installation" sub-menu. Make sure there is a check mark next to "Enable software installation" option.
