doesn’t print.

• Open MFP configurator and switch to the Printers tab in

 

Printers configuration window to look at the list of available

 

printers. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the

 

list. If not, please, use the Add New Printer wizard to set up

 

your device.

 

Check if the printer is started.

 

• Open Printers configuration and select your machine on the

 

printers list. Look at the description in the Selected printer

 

pane. If the printer status contains the word “stopped”, press

 

the Start button. Normal operation of the printer should be

 

restored. The "stopped" status might be activated when

 

some problems in printing occurred. For instance, this could

 

be an attempt to print a document when the MFP port is

 

already used by a scanning application.

 

Check the MFP port is not busy. Functional components of

 

MFP (printer and scanner) share the same I/O interface (MFP

 

port) and multiple components may be trying to use the MFP

 

port at the same time. Only one component at a time is allowed

 

to control the MFP. Any other component attempting to use the

 

MFP will receive the “device busy” message.

 

• Open MFP ports configuration and select the port assigned

 

to your printer. In the Selected port pane you can see if the

 

port is occupied by another component. If this is the case,

 

you should wait for current job to finish or press the Release

 

port button to cancel the current job.

 

Check if your application has special print option such as “-

 

oraw”.

 

• If “-oraw” is specified in the command line parameter then

 

remove it to print properly. For Gimp front-end, select “print”

 

-> “Setup printer” and edit the command line parameter in

 

the command item.
