Re: computer wont recognize printer
Like the other guy said try downloading the drivers, or you can just use the disc that came withe th printer if you still have it. A few other things to check/try:
1) check device manage and make sure all your usb ports are working properly. 2) test the printer's cable. 3) make sure the printer is on. 4) restart windows while the printer is on and connected. 5) try a different usb port. |
