Hi @Suzaroo,

 

I'd like to help!

 

To assist better-

 

  1. What is the error you receive when you copy or scan a document?
  2. How is the printer connected USB or wireless?
  3. What device are you using the printer with, a Windows computer, Mac, Android or an iPhone? 

 

Keep me posted.

I get no error code for trying to print a copy or scan.  It just doesn't do it.

 

It is connected via wireless and USB?

 

I use an older Mac, Maverick OS .  I am able to print wirelessly from internet/email.
