Recommendation
Make sure the printer cable is not too long. We recommend that you use a
parallel cable of less than 2 metres (6 feet) in length.
Make sure that the printer cable is not damaged or broken.
If you are using an interface-switching device, remove it. Connect your
computer directly to your printer, and then try again.
Check that you have chosen the appropriate printer driver with 'Set as

Make sure that the printer is not connected to the same port that is also
connected to a storage device or scanner. Take away all other devices and

document to allow for this.
