Help, why can't I print from my computer?

Why can't I print?



To name a general solution to this problem - almost impossible, as there are many printers available on the free market and there can be many reasons why the corresponding printer does not print.

For this reason, you should go to the official device manufacturer's website to download the latest driver.

Here is a small list of websites where you can download the required driver software: 
►  Brother  ►  HP  ►  Samsung  ►  Dell  ►  Xerox  ►  Epson  ►  Canon  ►  OKI  ► Kyocera  

After that, next try to install the original printer driver on your computer. Some printer problems are gone with the wind after installing the latest driver software that matches the printer. 
 

If the printer is not switched on, you cannot print!



So check whether the printer is switched on and connected to your computer or tablet according to the manufacturer's specifications.

Restart the devices!



Turn off your computers, as well as all printers, then the computers first and then the printers and other devices.
