Printer Does Not Print

Possible Cause
Is the power on?
Does the Alert indicator
stay red?
Is paper loaded?
Can you print a configura-
tion page?
Is the interface cable con-
nected securely to the
printer and the computer?
Are you using the correct
interface cable?
Is the Ready indicator
blinking or lit after starting
the print job?
If printing still does not start, contact your sales or service representative. Con-
sult with the store where the printer was purchased for information about the
location of sales or service representatives.
Confirm that the cable is securely plugged into the power outlet
and the printer.
Turn on the power.
If so, check the error message on the control panel and take the re-
quired action.
Load paper into the paper tray or the bypass tray.
See p.45 "Loading Paper".
If you cannot print a configuration page, it probably indicates a
printer malfunction. Contact your sales or service representative.
For details about printing the configuration page using control
panel, see p.14 "Test Printing".
Connect the interface cable securely. If it has a fastener, fasten it
securely as well.
The type of interface cable you should use depends on the compu-
ter you use. Be sure to use the correct one.
If the cable is damaged or worn, replace it with a new one.
See p.139 "Specifications".
If not blinking or lit, the data is not being sent to the printer.
❖ If the printer is connected to the computer using the in-
terface cable
Check the port connection setting is correct. For details about
checking the port connection, see p.114 "When the Printer is
Directly Connected to a Computer via USB Cable".
❖ Network Connection
