. Go to your install printer driver screen and select your printer from the list.
. Then click on the Next and then click on the finish.
. You can see that your printer has been installed.
. Go to your printers by right clicking and select properties.
. Then click on the print test page to test the printer from the General tab.

Solution 4: Is your printer is wireless?. If your printer is wireless then you can follow the below-

. Go to start menu and click on the device and printers from the right ride of the start menu.
. Then click on the Add a printer
. Then you have to click on the Add a Network then click on the wireless or Bluetooth printer.
. After searching your printer then click on the Next and follow the instruction. I hope your problem will be solved.

Solution 5:

. Sometimes it is caused for bad printer cable. Have you checked your cable?
. If any problem you will see then change the cable and try to connect your printer in different port.

Solution 6: If you can not resolve the problem from above method then you can follow the below-

· You have to update and install your latest printer software from the manufacturer company website.

· Then install the driver software.

· After installing driver software you have to change your printer settings.

Solution 7:

. Update your latest BIOS version.
. Sometimes it is caused for windows bit system. If your printer will not support 64- bit operating system then try to install 32- bit operating system.
. Sometimes It is caused for Antivirus or Firewall system. If your Firewall will not support your printer driver then uninstall your firewall and try to connect your printer again. I think your problem will be solved.

Solution 8: If the above method will not work for your then you have to change your operating system. If the problem will occur again then please contact us.
