Troubleshooting the Printer
I cannot print.
❑ Make sure the power to the printer is on, and the printer cable is securely
connected to both the printer and your notebook.
❑ The default setting for the printer port mode is correct for most printers. If
you cannot print, try changing the printer port mode.
1 Click Start on the Windows task bar, and then Control Panel.
2 Click Performance and Maintenance, then System. Select the Hardware
tab, and click Device Manager.
3 Double-click Ports (COM&LPT), and then ECP Printer Port (LPT1).
Select the Port Settings tab, and choose a different LPT Port Number.
❑ Your connected printer may not function after the notebook resumes from a
power saving mode. If this occurs, follow these steps to reset the printer
connection:
1 Click Start and then Control Panel.
2 Click Printers and other Hardware, and then Printers and Faxes.
3 Right-click the icon of the printer that is not functioning, and then select
Properties to open the Properties window.
4 Click OK to close the Properties window. The printer should now
function properly.
