or it prints garbage.

Make sure the printer cable is not too long. We recommend that
you use a parallel cable of less than 2 metres (6.6 feet) in length.

Check if the printer cable is damaged or broken.

If you are using an interface-switching device, remove it and then
connect your computer directly to your printer and try again.

Check that the appropriate printer driver is selected as ‘Set as
Default’.

Check that the printer is not connected to the same port that is
also connected to a mass storage device or scanner. Remove all
other devices and then connect the port only to the printer.

Turn off printer status reporting in the Device/Options tab in the
printer driver.
