This article mainly introduces the reasons why the printer can not print, the article is very detailed, has a certain reference value, interested friends must read it!

The reason why the printer cannot print: the primary printer is not set as the default printer. Solution: 1, open the start menu, click [Settings]; 2, enter the printer settings; 3, right-click the printer icon and select [set as default].

1. The printer does not have a driver installed (that is, the printer is not installed properly)

In order to print the printer, the printer must be installed normally. Generally, the printer has a driver CD. We can choose the installation of the corresponding model, but many friends like to download the driver on the Internet. this situation may lead to installation to drivers of different models, resulting in the printer not being able to print. The solution is to use the printer driver that comes with the CD as much as possible.

2. The printer is not powered on or the printer is not online

Many times, when editors find that some office users are unable to print files using the printer, it is because the printer power is not turned on, or they may accidentally touch the printer-related settings button and switch to the offline state. In these two low-level error cases, the natural printer cannot print.

Solution: check whether the printer's power indicator and online status light are on; if the power indicator is not on, please check whether the printer is properly connected to alternating current and whether the boot switch on the printer is turned on; if the online status indicator is bad, you can press the button corresponding to the online indicator to switch to online mode.

3. Poor contact or damage of printer data cable

If you simply exclude the above two methods, you can still not print, please check whether the printer's data cable connection is normal, whether the data cable is damaged, and so on.

Solution: check the data cable connection between the printer and the host computer, check whether the data cable is damaged, etc.

4. The primary printer is not set as the default printer

The failure to print because the printer is not set as the default printer is mainly due to the use of multiple printers in one computer, such as common shared print settings, such as the printer installed on this machine when the computer has an application to print, but we set the shared printer as the default printer, which will cause the program to be unable to find the corresponding printer and naturally cannot print. This situation is also relatively easy to happen.

Solution: check which printer corresponds to the computer application. Then set the corresponding printer as the default printer. The method to set the default printer is as follows:

(1) Click the Windows "start" menu, point to Settings, click "Printer", and open the "Printer" window.

(2) right-click the printer icon, the system pops up a shortcut menu, and click "set as default".

5. Unknown error causes the printer to fail to print

In some cases, it may be a system program error, or an error in the internal memory of the printer, resulting in a temporary strike of the printer unable to print. We can try to restart the computer and the printer to rule out such problems.

6. the printer has timed out, causing the printer to fail to print.

Sometimes due to the printer paper problems, or the printer itself may have some glitches, resulting in slow printing, printing time exceeds the default time of the system, you can try to increase the printing time.

Solution: try to change the better printing paper, or increase the printing time appropriately, set up as follows:

(1) in the Printer window, right-click the printer icon, and then click Properties.

(2) Click the "details" tab and add each timeout setting under "timeout Settings". The "unselected" item specifies the time that Window s waits for the printer to come online, and an error message will be displayed after the specified time.

7. there is not enough space on the hard disk, so the printer cannot print.

Generally speaking, the printer program needs at least 10m or more free disk space to print normally, and if it is less than 10m, it may cause printing to fail. As far as the current computer is concerned, this situation is basically gone, because a computer cannot even have 10m free space.
