23 Troubleshooting NOTE: Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI) is available only for Dell™ C1760nw Color Printer. Basic Printer Problems NOTE: Ethernet connection is available only for Dell C1760nw Color Printer. Some printer problems can be easy to resolve. If a problem occurs with your printer, check each of the following: • The power cable is connected to the printer, and to a properly grounded electrical outlet. • The printer is turned on. • The electrical outlet is not turned off at any switch or breaker. • Other electrical equipment plugged into the outlet is working.
