Wireless networking problems
Run the printer’s self-test to check for any problem with the
printer itself.
Make sure you installed the proper printer drivers as shown
in the instructions that came with the printer.
You may have connected the printer while the computer is
on. Disable Sleep mode, turn off the computer, and turn off
the printer. Turn the printer back on, make sure it is online,
and then turn the computer back on.
Try printing another file. For example, you could create and
attempt to print a short test file using Notepad. If a Notepad
file prints correctly, the problem may be in your original file.
If you cannot resolve the problem, contact the printer’s
manufacturer.
The printer will not print what you see on the
screen.
Many programs display information on the screen differently
from the way they print it. See if your program has a print
preview mode. This mode lets you see your work exactly as
it will print. Contact the software manufacturer for more
information.
Wireless networking problems
This section provides general troubleshooting tips for
networking problems, specifically wireless (Wi-Fi®)
networking.
The terms and concepts used assume a basic
understanding of networks, and may be for more
advanced users. If you need assistance or if you are not
familiar with the terminology, please see Windows® Help
and Support or contact your computer technician.
❖If your computer is equipped with an internal Wi-Fi®
adapter, verify that Airplane mode is OFF (the wireless
indicator light will be lit).
❖Verify that your computer can detect access points or
routers. If it can detect a Wi-Fi® access point or router
then it may be a configuration issue.
❖Verify that signal strength is good using the utility
provided with the Wi-Fi® adapter.
