What is the best way to remove jammed paper from my printer?

It is best to gently pull the paper out of the printer. Turn the printer off, and make sure that the printhead is not hanging over the paper and that no paper remains in the printer.

How come my printer does not accept original cartridges?

Non-genuine cartridges may not be recognised by the printer. In that case you will receive a message that the cartridge is empty. The manual of the purchased cartridge usually contains the solution, if this does not work, it is advisable to contact the seller.

How come my prints are of poor quality?

There can be various reasons for poor print quality. Check if the cartridges or toners are full. If so, inkjet printers often require cleaning the printer, the cartridges have dried out, or the print head is broken. With laser printers, calibrating the laser printer is recommended.

What is the difference between a laser printer and an inkjet printer?

A laser printer prints with a toner and an inkjet printer prints with ink.

How come my inkjet printer has black stripes?

DPI stands for Dots Per Inch and is the number of ink droplets (per inch) that end up on the paper when printing.

Why is my printer not printing any pages?

Ensure that the printer is connected properly to a power source and that all cables are securely plugged in. Check if there are any error messages on the printer's display panel or on your computer.

The print quality is poor, how can I improve it?

Ensure that you are using the recommended paper type and size for your print job.
