The error message 'two-way communication cannot be established' or

'printer not responding' appears

The printer might not be able to communicate with the computer if the USB cable is

too long.
If you receive this error message, ensure the USB cable is not greater than five

meters (approximately 16 feet, five inches) in length. Connect the printer directly to

the USB port on the computer and not to a USB hub.
