Printer control-panel problems
The following table lists common printer control-panel problems and suggested solutions for resolving them.
| Control-panel settings do not work correctly
|
| Cause
| Solution
|
| The printer control-panel display is blank, even when the fan is running.
| Fans might run while the printer is in standby mode (off). Press the printer power switch to turn on the printer.
|
| Printer settings in the software program or printer driver differ from the printer control-panel settings.
| Confirm that the settings in the program and printer driver are appropriate. The program settings override the printer-driver and control-panel settings, and the printer-driver settings override the control-panel settings.
|
| Control-panel settings were not correctly saved.
| Select the control-panel settings again, and then press OK. An asterisk (*) should appear to the right of the setting.
|
| If the printer is on a network, another user might have changed printer control-panel settings.
| Consult the network administrator to coordinate changes to printer control-panel settings.
