•Look at the On button located on the top of the HP All-in-One. If it is not lit, the HP All- in-One is turned off. Make sure the power cord is firmly connected to the HP All-in- One and plugged into a power outlet. Press the On button to turn on the HP All-in- One.

•Check the USB cable. If you are using an older cable, it might not be working properly. Try connecting it to another product to see if the USB cable works. If you experience problems, the USB cable might need to be replaced. Also verify that the cable does not exceed 3 meters (9.8 feet) in length.

•Check the connection from the HP All-in-One to your computer. Verify that the USB cable is securely plugged into the USB port on the back of the HP All-in-One. Make sure the other end of the USB cable is plugged into a USB port on your computer.

After the cable is connected properly, turn the HP All-in-One off and then on again.
