Your printer is not networked; it has a direct USB connection to the computer. The device you have used is incorrect - which makes printing impossible. The device needs to be changed. One way is: 1. Reboot the computer with the printer attached and switched on. 2. Go to http://localhost:631 with your browser. 3. Go to "Administration". Is the printer found? 4.
