I've purchased a LaserjetPro M125nw black and white printer and cannot easily read the display screen as there is no light.  I have got the printer to print OK but I had to use a torch.

 

Is this a fault or can the screen light be activated in some way?  

 

I have had the printer for a week and got round to setting it up two days ago.

Hello slcrun,

 

You might have to tilt the display up/down so that the light falls on the display.

 

The printer display does not have a backlit.
