3 Using the USB Network Print Adapter

For most everyday tasks, you will use your printer or all-in-one device just like you always have. Occasionally you may want to use the Connection Manager or Advanced Setup utility.

Use the Connection Manager

You can use the Connection Manager icon in the System Tray (lower-right corner of your screen) to perform the following tasks.

•Check the status.

•Change printers.

•Access the Print Queue.

•Connect or Disconnect.

Connection Manager icons

The Connection Manager has a number of icons to tell you the status of the Network Print Adapter. The three common ones are described below.

The printer or all-in-one device is connected and ready to use.

The Network Print Adapter can detect the printer or all-in-one but it is not currently connected. The device will be automatically reconnected if a print job is sent. If you want to scan or use the memory card slots, for example, you will need to manually reconnect the device.

STo manually reconnect, right-click the icon and select Connect. The Network Print Adapter cannot detect the printer.

Check to see if all cables are connected between the adapter and printer and that both plugged in and have power.

Use the Print Queue to cancel or pause a print job. If you get a message that the print job has failed, you should cancel the job to delete it from the print queue.

1.Right-click the Connection Manager icon and select Print Queue.

2.Right-click the print job in the Print Manager and select Cancel.

Change printers
