Troubleshooting the Printer

I cannot print

The default setting for the printer port mode is correct for most printers. If you cannot print, try changing the
printer port mode. In Sony Notebook Setup, select the Printer tab. If the printer port mode is set to ECP,
change it to bi-directional. If the printer port mode is set to bi-directional, change it to ECP. See "Displaying
the Sony Notebook Setup Screen" for more information on using Sony Notebook Setup.

Your connected printer may not function after the notebook resumes from a power saving mode. If this
occurs, proceed as follows to reset the printer connection:

1.

Click Start on the Windows

®

taskbar, point to My Computer, then select Control Panel.

2.

Click on the Printers folder.

3.

Right-click the printer icon that is malfunctioning, then select Properties to access the Properties
window.

4.

Click OK to close the Properties window. The printer should function properly.

Make sure the printer is compatible with the Windows

®

operating system installed on your computer. Also, make sure

the correct printer drivers are installed. See

drivers.
