Other than being unaligned, my printer has worked fine up until now. I recently moved into a new office and can’t connect to the wifi so my printer is connected directly to my chromebook. When printing it will print maybe 2 or 3 pages before it starts spewing out pages with lines of symbols, smiley faces etc. I’ve tried turning it off and on, unplugging it etc which doesn’t work, I can’t figure out how to reset printer drive setting on my chromebook, and I’m unsure how to reset the printer itself? Help please! I need to print out labels for work.
