Before Using Your Machine

Before attempting any printing operation, confirm the following:

  • Make sure you have installed the correct software and drivers for your machine.
  • For USB cable users: Make sure the interface cable is physically secure.

Selecting the correct type of paper

For high quality printing, it is important to select the correct type of paper. Be sure to read the information about acceptable paper before buying paper, and to determine the printable area depending on the settings in the printer driver or in the application you use to print.

Firewall (Windows)

If your computer is protected by a firewall and you are unable to network print or network scan, you may need to configure the firewall settings. If you are using the Windows Firewall and you installed the drivers using the steps in the installer, the necessary firewall settings have been already set. If you are using any other personal firewall software, see the User's Guide for your software or contact the software manufacturer.
