How do I trouble shoot this and fix it, please? --doug Doug,
You sure have a lot of trouble with printers!
Are you connecting to this printer via USB or network? If it's via network maybe the printer got a different IP address - Hint - set a static IP address for the printer. Or the firewall is blocking communication.
So, how are are connecting to this printer?
Mark It's on the LAN. I just pinged its static IP and it came back OK. Zero
