Solving Problems
with Printing
Only the
P power light is on, but
nothing prints . . .
■ Make sure the interface cable is
connected securely. (Use a fully
shielded IEEE-1284 compliant
parallel cable.)
■ Run a printer check as described
on page 43.
If you ran a printer check
successfully, make sure your
printer and application software
are installed correctly. If you’re
printing on a network, you may
need to set up your printer for
network printing, as described in
your electronic EPSON Stylus
COLOR 660 Reference Guide.
