Solving printer problems

The following suggestions should work for all printers.

m

Check your printer settings in the Chooser, making sure you have selected
the correct printer.

m

Next, turn off the computer and printer and check the printer cable
connections.

m

If neither of these suggestions solves the problem, reinstall your printer
driver. If your printer is an older model, do not use the driver that came
with the printer. Instead, use the updated printer drivers provided on the
system software CD-ROM that came with your Power Macintosh. These
drivers are created especially for use with the Power Macintosh.
