and the ready light is on. If you are connecting through a USB or

incorrectly.

Mac OS X V10.3 and V10.4: Library/Printers/PPDs/
Contents/Resources/<lang>.lproj, where <lang> is the
two-letter language code for the language that you are using.

Mac OS X V10.5: Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/

If necessary, reinstall the software. See the getting started guide for
instructions.

or Rendezvous host name on the configuration page matches the
product name, IP address, or Rendezvous host name in the Print
Center or Printer Setup Utility.
