3. Check the printer data cable connection, whether it is connected with parallel port / USB port on the computer.
   
4. Try to use other printer data cable (borrowed friends) as an experiment. There have been cases caused by the rupture of one of the copper data cable in the middle of the cable so that data from the computer can not get to the printer.
   
5. If you are using Microsoft Windows operating system, and you use a printer connected to the parallel port on your computer, try running the command below in bold at the MSDOS Prompt window.
   
6. C: \> dir>> LPT1
   
7. The purpose of these commands is to distort the appearance of "dir" command (command for penampilkan table of contents of a directory) than they should to the monitor but was transferred to a computer parallel port.

11. Try using a standard text editor application for your operating system to print something (eg notepad). If the application you can print a text editor, then most likely the fault is not on your printer.
  
12. Try to change your printer settings to "Default Printer" or try to reinstall the drivers for your printer with other printer name and change the new installation as "Default Printer".
  
13. Make sure you have sufficient disk space. Sometimes if the buffer is not enough then the data can not be sent to the printer perfectly.
  
14. Try to change the setting "spooler" to your printer using the printer properties menu. Features "spooler" is used in order so you will be able to run the application when done printing the document.

This case may also be caused by your computer port is problematic. For find out, if the above steps you have done but did not find a "bright spot", try to move your printer port connection to another port (eg USB1 to USB3) or try your printer on another computer.
The printer seems to print but there is nothing written on paper This case is generally caused by the empty printer ink or toner or endless ribbon of carbon that is in your printer. Try to replace the ink, toner or ribbon with a new printer. Do not forget to check if there is something blocking the head with the paper (eg plastic seal on a new printer). There are cases on the printer that uses ink, where ink is still in the printer head has been dry since the old printer is not used, causing a blockage. Especially for a printer that headnya can be removed easily, these problems are resolved by the following simple way:

    
* Remove the head and cartridge from the printer.
    
* Separate ink cartridge from the head.
    
* Make sure you do not hold hold an electronic circuit located around the printer head off because you have to destroy it.
    
* Take hot water, pour in a bowl.
    
* Dip the tip of the head into the existing hot water in the bowl. Note do not let water touch the electronic circuits that are around head because it can destroy it.
    
* Shake head until the ink is in the head to melt.
    
* Repeat the dyeing step (4 to 6) above with a new hot water until a new hot water remained clear (not contaminated with ink that comes out of the head).
    
* Dry the head with a soft cloth until completely dry.
    
* Reunite ink cartridge with the head. It is recommended to use a cartridge that is still new.
    
* Replace the head and the cartridge into the printer and try printing. To facilitate understanding, the following illustration is a picture of step 4 to step 6 th
    
* Of the above instructions: If you have do do head cleaning steps as above but the result remained the same, the possibility of blockage occur until the ink supply pipe. When this happens, try to head with the ink channel steaming hot steam to about ink that is in the pipe to melt, then repeat step cleaning head as above.
