Troubleshooting
If the bidirectional communication functions are provided with your printer, disabling the functions on the computer may

!
This change to the settings will disable the bidirectional communication functions of your printer, such as data transfer, status monitoring, and remote 
panel.
Check the physical connections between the multi function bay docking station and printer, the AC adapter and the power 
cord, and the power cord and an AC outlet, and then restart the computer.
 
Why does an error message appear when I press the UNDOCK button or select Undock 
Computer from the Start menu?
When any device inserted or connected to the multi function bay docking station is in use, you cannot disconnect the 
computer form the docking station. Save unsaved data, exit applications using such devices, and then try again.
If the above does not work, shut down the computer and disconnect it from the multi function bay docking station.
