Problem

 

Possible Solutions

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Printer does not

Make sure you are using the power cord that came with

 

power on

 

 

 

your printer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Make sure the power cord is connected to the AC adapter

 

 

 

and is plugged into an outlet or power strip.

 

 

 

If the USB 2.0 cable was disconnected from the printer,

 

 

 

then reconnected, or if power to the printer was

 

 

 

interrupted, restart the computer.

 

 

 

 

Printer not detected

Make sure your printer is plugged in and turned on.

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you are using a USB cable, make sure:

 

 

 

– you have a USB 2.0 cable.

 

 

 

– that the USB cable is connected to both your printer and

 

 

 

your computer.

 

 

 

If you are using a wireless connection, make sure:

 

 

 

– the printer is connected to your wireless network (check

 

 

 

the Wi-Fi connectivity LED and the SSID).

 

 

 

– your router is transmitting data.

 

 

 

– the firewall (excluding WINDOWS Firewall) is allowing

 

 

 

the services needed for your printer.
