Printing Does Not Start

1. Check1 Make sure that the power plug is securely plugged in, then press the ON button to turn the machine on.

   While the POWER lamp is flashing, the machine is initializing. Wait until the POWER lamp stops flashing and remains lit.

   Note

   • When printing large data such as a photo or graphics, it may take longer to start printing. While the POWER lamp is flashing, the computer is processing data and sending it to the machine. Wait until printing starts.

2. Check2 Make sure that the machine is connected to your computer properly.

   When the machine is connected to your computer with a USB cable, make sure that the USB cable is securely plugged in to the machine and the computer, then check the followings:

   • If you are using a relay device such as a USB hub, disconnect it, connect the machine directly to the computer, and try printing again. If printing starts normally, there is a problem with the relay device. Consult the reseller of the relay device for details.

   • There could also be a problem with the USB cable. Replace the USB cable and try printing again.

   When you use the machine over LAN, make sure that the machine is set up to be used over network correctly.

3. Check3 Is the access point mode enabled?

   When you print using a mode other than the access point mode, disable the access point mode in advance.

4. Check4 Make sure that the paper output tray is open.

5. Check5 Are the paper settings identical with those registered to the cassette?

   When the paper settings are not identical with those registered to the cassette, an error message is displayed. Resolve the error according to the instructions on the LCD.

7. Check7 Make sure that your machine's name is selected in the Print dialog.

   The machine will not print properly if you are using a printer driver for a different printer.

   Make sure that your machine's name is selected in Printer in the Print dialog.

   Note

   • To make the machine the one selected by default, select the machine for Default printer.
