When I connect a

USB cable between

the printer and my

computer, the “New

Hardware Wizard”

message does not

appear.

(Windows PC only)

(continued from

previous page)

Your USB cable may not

be working or may not be

connected properly.

1

Disconnect and then reconnect the USB

cable from your printer.

2

Make sure the cable is securely

attached both to the computer and to

the printer.

3

If you are still having problems, try

using another USB cable.

You may not have USB

enabled.

1

In Windows 98, 2000, Me, or XP, click

Start, Settings, Control Panel.

2

Double-click the System icon.

3

Click the Device Manager tab.

4

Click the (+) icon next to the Universal

Serial Bus Controller option. If you see a

USB host controller and a USB root hub

listed, USB is probably enabled. If you

do not see these devices listed, refer to

your computer’s documentation or

contact the manufacturer for more

information on enabling and setting up

USB.

If you cannot enable USB, you can use a

parallel cable to connect your printer to your

computer.

Your printer may not be

turned on.

Make sure the USB cable is connected

securely and the printer is connected to a

working power source.

Turn the printer on.
