Symptoms: nothing happens or an error message comes up in the Windows application program.

Make sure that the power cord is plugged in securely on both ends and that the printer is turned on. Confirm power is applied by pressing the Power button on the printer. The green LED above both the Power and the On line buttons should be illuminated.

Make certain that the printer cable is securely connected. An error message in the software application telling you that the printer is not responding is usually due to a missing or defective parallel interface cable.

The cover is not securely latched shut.

If your computer seems to raster the image and send it to the printer, but the printer does not react at all, you may be in need of more hard disk space for the size of your image. You should have enough space on your hard disk for double the size of the file you are trying to print.
