There’s always that one document that you need to get printed, it’s really important, you’re running around like a headless chicken trying to print, and then something goes wrong with the printer; there’s a jam, error message, connection failure, resulting in STRESS!

Why not just sit back and breathe, count to 10 and start again. Cancel the printing jobs awaiting or attempting to print and turn off the printer. Make sure that all the cables are inserted correctly as the slightest disconnection can cause the printer to go wild. Make sure there’s plenty of paper in the tray and if anything’s jammed that every little last bit of paper is removed. Turn the printer back on, wait until it’s fully loaded and then check all the connection if its wireless, you may simply need to refresh the connection or reconnect but this can be done at a calm level. Once you have done all the normal checks go ahead and try and print the document again, what’s the bet it will work?

Printers can be very stressful and the littlest thing will make you want to through it out the window BUT they are very essential and by simply sitting and taking a breather you’ll be able to fix the problem in no time.
