Canon Printer 

Printer is the most commonly used hardware devices in computers. That is why there are small troubles with the printer. This problem can be related to both software and hardware. There are some faults in it that you can fix yourself, so let's know the common printer problem and their solution. If your printer suddenly stops working, there can be many reasons behind it, as we have already said, your operating system only instructs your hardware to work.

What to do if Canon printer is not printing?

• If you have given more than one print command to the printer simultaneously, sometimes the printer stops working. For this, go to the control panel and check the printer properties or you can restart the computer.

• Most printers have the option of a test print, which does not need to turn on the computer, if there is a simple problem, then use the test print directly from the printer, if the printer is giving a test print and does not print from the computer, that means there is a problem with your operating system or a printer driver or data cable, check them one by one.

• There is a problem with some people that at the time of print they do not select the printer which is installed here and keep giving commands to the default printer of Windows. So before giving the print, check once that you are giving the command to the same printer that is installed here.

• If the paper is stuck in the printer, do not pull the paper by force it will slowly out of the direction from which the print outcomes out.

• If you have a laser printer and its ink is gone, then remove the cartridge and shake it gently once, you can remove 10-20 prints comfortably.

• Keep paper safe from moisture in the rainy season. Heat in laser printers causes moisture to evaporate which can damage your printer. For this, keep the papers in the sun for a while.

• Before applying paper to the printer, see if the paper is bent or torn.

• Use only good quality paper in a laser printer, if you use more light paper then it can spoil your printer quickly.

• If you have just bought a new printer, then you must have a driver CD or DVD with it, keep it safe, so you can fix it with that.

If the print is not coming out, then check a few things-

• Whether the printer's switch is on.

• Whether or not the printer is properly connected to the CPU by USB data only.

• Whether the printer driver is installed or not.

• Check in the control panel whether the printer is offline.

• Whether or not the cartage is properly placed in the printer.

• Apart from the green light of the printer, the Lyle is not burning.
