What steps can I take to troubleshoot my printer?

  1. Check the power outlet or power strip to ensure it is still working by plugging something else into the same outlet
  2. Restart the printer and the computer
  3. Check for any error messages that appear on the printer display
  4. Check that the power cable from the printer to the power outlet is properly connected
  5. Check that paper is properly loaded in the correct tray and that there is enough paper in the tray
  6. Clean the print rollers if they appear to be worn, dirty, or if the paper is not feeding properly
  7. Replace the ink or toner cartridges if the printer is not printing upside down or the colors are not coming out in the correct order
