Never swap modules when the computer is in Hibernation or
Standby mode. This is known as “warm swapping” and is not
supported with this computer. For more information on Hibernation
and Standby modes see “Hibernation mode” on page 72 and
“Standby mode” on page 73.
The system does not recognize your ExpressCard™.
Refer to the ExpressCard™ documentation.
Removing a malfunctioning card and reinstalling it can correct
many problems.
An ExpressCard™ error occurs.
Reinsert the card to make sure it is properly connected.
If the card is attached to an external device, check that the
connection is secure.
Refer to the card’s documentation, which should contain a

Printer problems
This section lists some of the most common printer problems.
The printer will not print.
Check that the printer is connected to a working power outlet,
turned on and ready (on line).
Check that the printer has plenty of paper. Some printers will not
start printing when there are just two or three sheets of paper left in
the tray.
Make sure the printer cable is firmly attached to the computer and
the printer.
Run the printer’s self-test to check for any problem with the printer
itself.
Make sure you installed the proper printer drivers as shown in
“Setting up a printer” on page 70 or in the instructions that came
with the printer.
You may have connected the printer while the computer is on.
Disable Standby mode, turn off the computer, and turn off the
printer. Turn the printer back on, make sure it is online, and then
turn the computer back on.
