Problem

Possible Cause and Solution

The machine doesn’t

print

• Check if the printer driver is installed in your system. Open

MFP configurator and switch to the Printers tab in Printers

configuration window to look at the list of available

printers. Make sure that your machine is displayed on the

list. If not, please, invoke Add new printer wizard to set up

your device.

• Check if the printer is started. Open Printers configuration

and select your machine on the printers list. Look at the

description in the Selected printer pane. If its status

contains “(stopped)” string, please, press the Start

button. After that normal operation of the printer should be

restored. The "stopped" status might be activated when

some problems in printing occurred. For instance, this

could be an attempt to print document when MFP port is

claimed by a scanning application.

• Check if the MFP port is not busy. Since functional

components of MFP (printer and scanner) share the same

I/O interface (MFP port), the situation of simultaneous

access of different “consumer” application to the same MFP

port is possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one of

them at a time is allowed to gain control over the device.

The other “consumer” will encounter “device busy”

response. You should open MFP ports configuration and

select the port assigned to your printer. In the Selected

port pane you can see if the port is occupied by some other

application. If this is the case, you should wait for

completion of the current job or should press Release port

button, if you are sure that the present owner is not

functioning properly.

Check if your application has special print option such as

“-oraw”. If “-oraw” is specified in the command line

parameter then remove it to print properly. For Gimp

front-end, select “print” -> “Setup printer” and edit

command line parameter in the command item.
