CHECK THAT YOUR COMPUTER IS ABLE TO ACKNOWLEDGE USB ACTIVITY ON THE USB PORT
Open the Device Manager to check if it has activity whenever a USB device is connected to a USB port:
1 Click , or click Start and then click Run.
2 In the Start Search or Run box, type devmgmt.msc.
3 Press Enter, or click OK.
The Device Manager opens.
4 Watch the Device Manager window while connecting a USB cable or another device to the USB port. The
window refreshes when Device Manager recognizes the USB connection.
• If there is activity on Device Manager but none of the previous solutions worked, call Customer Support.
• If there is no activity on Device Manager, there may be a problem with your computer and its USB support.
The computer must recognize the USB connection in order for installation to work.
Cannot print and there is a firewall on the computer
Third-party (non-Microsoft) firewalls can interfere with wireless printing. If the printer and computer are configured
correctly, and the wireless network is working, but the printer will not print wirelessly, then a firewall could be the
problem. If there is a firewall (other than the Windows firewall) on the computer, try one or more of the following:
• Update the firewall using the most recent update available from the manufacturer. Refer to the documentation
that came with your firewall for instructions on how to do this.
• If programs request firewall access when you install the printer or try to print, make sure you allow those programs
to run.
• Temporarily disable the firewall and install the wireless printer on the computer. Re-enable the firewall when you
have completed the wireless installation.
