Q:The printer does not work.

A:Do the following:

Make sure that the printer is connected to a power outlet and that it is turned on.

Make sure that the printer cable is connected securely to the system’s parallel port and the corresponding port on the printer. See “Printer” on page 32 for information on how to connect the printer to your computer.

For additional information concerning the printer, refer to the printer’s documentation.

A:Check the following:

The volume may be muted. Look for the Volume icon on the taskbar. If it is crossed-out, click on the icon and deselect the Mute option. You can also press the volume control/mute knob on your USB keyboard to toggle from mute to sound on.
