Is the power on?

When the device is
connected to a grounded
power source, the control
panel shows Hewlett
Packard
with moving
cursors indicating that the
firmware code is loading,
and the print engine motor
rotates for approximately
45 to 60 seconds. When
the firmware is done
loading, Scanner bulb
warming up
appears in
the control panel, and the
scan head moves back
and forth for 10-15
seconds. If you lift the
scanner lid, you will see
that the scanner bulb is lit.
Near the end of this time,
the automatic document
feeder (ADF) motor turns
on for about two seconds.

No power due to failed power source,
cable, switch, or fuse.
