Connect the printer to the USB port you used to install the printer driver. • Do not put your computer into the standby mode (or sleep mode) while the printer is connected to a USB port. • If you accidentally do so, do not disconnect the USB cable from your computer while it is in the standby mode; instead, leaving the USB cable connected, first return your computer to its normal mode. If you remove the USB cable while your computer is in the standby mode, your computer may not be able to return to its normal mode.
