If it still does not print, connect your printer directly to your computer instead of the hub. • Make sure the USB hub is recognized correctly on the computer. Disconnect all USB hubs from the computer and connect the printer directly to the computer's USB port. • Make sure the USB cable length does not exceed 10 feet (3 m).
