Printer Does Not Print

Symptom

The

READY

button on the

front of the printer does not
turn the lamp on.

Cause and Solution

the computer.

¥ Make sure that the printer cable is IEEE 1284-compliant

bi-directional parallel interface cable.

¥ Make sure that your application has the SmartJet selected as

the default printer.

¥ Make sure that there is paper in the automatic paper feeder.
