not charge.

Unplug the printer power cord if it is plugged in. Open the battery compartment
cover and remove the battery. Wait about 30 seconds, and then reinstall the
battery. Plug in the power cord. Turn on the printer. For more information on
how to install the battery, see the documentation that came with the battery.

The printer makes noises when I turn it on, or starts making noises on its own after
it has been sitting unused for a while.
Solution The printer may make noises after long periods of inactivity
(approximately 2 weeks), or when its power supply has been interrupted and then
restored. This is normal operation—the printer is performing an automatic
maintenance procedure to ensure that it produces the best quality output.
The remote does not work.
Cause
●
The battery in the remote may be drained.
●
The output tray may be closed.
Solution
●
Purchase a new CR2025 battery and replace the old battery with it.
●
Open the output tray. The infrared sensor is on the front of the printer. The
remote cannot communicate with the printer if the output tray or anything else
covers the sensor.
●
Aim directly at the infrared sensor on the front of the printer. Move closer, if
necessary.
●
Remove anything that might be covering the sensor or obstructing the line of
sight between it and the remote.
