-
If the carriage on your printer has a latch, make sure it is closed.
-
Use your hand to move the carriage to each side, making sure it moves freely. If the carriage is stalled or docked to one side of the printer and you cannot move it, continue with these steps.
-
Close the carriage access door.
-
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer, and then turn the printer on.
