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 the Sony Notebook
Setup screen, 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
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 My Computer icon on the desktop, then click on the Control Panel
folder.

2

Click on the Printers folder.

3

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

4

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