For a paper jam, see Clear paper jams.
• For paper-feed problems, such as the paper skew and paper pick, see Solve paper-
feed problems.
• Power light is on and not blinking. When the printer is turned on for the first time, it
takes approximately 12 minutes to initialize it after the ink cartridges are installed.
• Power cord and other cables are working, and are firmly connected to the printer.
Make sure the printer is connected firmly to a functioning alternating current (AC)
power outlet, and is turned on. For voltage requirements, see Electrical
requirements.
• Media is loaded correctly in the input tray and is not jammed in the printer.
• All packing tapes and materials are removed.
• The printer is set as the current or default printer. For Windows, set it as the default
in the Printers folder. For Mac OS X, set it as the default in the Print & Fax section of
the System Preferences. See your computer's documentation for more information.
• Pause Printing is not selected if you are using a computer running Windows.
• You are not running too many programs when you are performing a task. Close
programs that you are not using or restart the computer before attempting the task
again.
