If Something Goes Wrong

Resolving a hardware conflict

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

“Setting up a printer” on page 70

or in the instructions that came

with the printer.

You may have connected the printer while the computer is on.
Disable Standby 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.

If your computer is equipped with an internal Wi-Fi

To determine if your computer has an internal Wi-Fi

adapter, check

the device list in Device Manager (part of the Windows
