Check that the printer and/or network cables are securely connected to the printer. If you are using a parallel cable, ensure that it is also firmly connected to the computer.

¥Check printer setup

Make sure your HP 2500C Series printer is selected as the current or default printer.

¥Check document file

Your document may be corrupted. Try printing another file from the same software application.
