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.
