Basic Printer Problems
Some printer problems can be easy to resolve. If a problem occurs with your printer, check each of the
following:
❏
The power cord is connected to the printer, and to a properly grounded electrical outlet.
❏
The printer is turned on.
❏
The electrical outlet is not turned off at any switch or breaker.
❏
Other electrical equipment plugged into the outlet is working.
❏
When the AL-MX200DWF model is connected to a wireless network, an Ethernet cable should be
unplugged from the printer.
If you have checked all of the above and still have a problem, turn off the printer, wait for 10 seconds,
and then turn on the printer. This often fixes the problem.
