    Correcting USB Problems
    If you are having difficulty using printer with a USB connection, 
    see if your problem is listed below, and take any recommended 
    actions.
    USB connections
    USB cables or connections can sometimes be the source of USB 
    problems. Try one or both of these solution.
    ❏For best results, you should connect the printer directly to the 
    computer’s USB port. If you must use multiple USB hubs, we 
    recommend that you connect the printer to the first-tier hub.
    The installed option is not defined in 
    the printer driver.For Windows users:
    You have to make settings manually in the 
    printer driver. See  Making Optional 
    Settings on page 98.
    For Macintosh users:
    When you have attached or removed 
    printer options, you need to delete the 
    printer using Print Setup Utility (for Mac 
    OS X 10.3), Print Center (for Mac OS X 10.2 
    or below), or Chooser (for Mac OS 9), and 
    then re-register the printer.
     
    						
    							386Troubleshooting
    Windows operating system
    Your computer must be a model pre-installed with Windows XP, 
    Me, 98, 2000, or Server 2003, a model that was pre-installed with 
    Windows 98 and upgraded to Windows Me, or a model that was 
    pre-installed with Windows Me, 98, 2000, or Server 2003, and 
    upgraded to Windows XP. You may not be able to install or run 
    the USB printer driver on a computer that does not meet these 
    specifications or that is not equipped with a built-in USB port.
    For details about your computer, contact your dealer.
    Printer software installation
    Incorrect or incomplete software installation can lead to USB 
    problems. Take note of the following and perform the 
    recommended checks to ensure proper installation.
    Checking printer software installation for Windows 2000, XP, 
    or Server 2003
    When using Windows XP, 2000, or Server 2003, you must follow 
    the steps in the Setup Guide packed with the printer to install the 
    printer software. Otherwise, Microsoft’s Universal driver may be 
    installed instead. To check if the Universal driver has been 
    installed, follow the steps below.
    1. Open the Printers folder, then right-click the icon of your 
    printer.
    2. Click Printing Preferences on the shortcut menu that 
    appears, then right-click anywhere in the driver.

    If About is displayed in the shortcut menu that appears, click 
    it. If a message box with the words “Unidrv Printer Driver” 
    appears, you must reinstall the printer software as described 
    in the Setup Guide. If About is not displayed, the printer 
    software has been installed correctly.
    Note:
    For Windows 2000, if the Digital Signature Not Found dialog box 
    appears during the installation process, click Yes. If you click No, you 
    will have to install the printer software again.
    For Windows XP or Server 2003, if the Software Installation dialog box 
    appears during the installation process, click Continue Anyway. If 
    you click STOP Installation, you will have to install the printer software 
    again.
    Checking printer software in Windows Me and 98

    Me or 98 before the procedure was complete, the USB printer 
    device driver or the printer software may be incorrectly installed. 
    Follow the directions below to ensure that the driver and printer 
    software are installed correctly.
    Note:
    The screen shots shown in this section are taken from Windows 98. 
    Windows Me screens may differ slightly.
