My printer won't work. I want to know which USB
Any USB port should work. There is no "printer" USB port. The "U" stands for "Universal" to signify that any peripheral equipment will work.
Can you explain the problem a little further and perhaps I can give you an idea of how to proceed?
Thanks for using Fixya...awaiting your reply.

Printer not switching on
unplug printer for a minute and plug it back in,this might reset it?if that doesn't work if theres an red X on the panel,hit that and maybe it will clear it?good luck:)
My Dell A920 prints blank paper.
Inkjet printers need to be used frequently to prevent inkdrying out in the print head nozzles.If the print head cleaning maintenance routine does not clear the blockages,then print head needs replacing, but it may be expensive.It may be more cost effective to buy a later model and better printer thanreplace the print head.
Flashing Green Light/ Computer can't communicate with printer......
Hi. The flashing code signifies that there is a fault with the connection between the ink cartridge and the printer - usually because either the tape is still on the cartridge or maybe some glue from the tape still on the contacts. In my case, I think the cartridge was simply knackered, so I threw it away and opened yet another ink cartridge. It now works fine.
If you want to test yours, simply take out both ink cartridges, and re-insert them one at a time. If you've put a working cartridge in the flashing will stop; if you've put the dodgy one in it'll still flash. Just replace the dodgy one.
Hope this helps.

My printer will not print. It scans fine to a
Have you tried going to Dell and downloading the drivers for it? I had an A920 until a couple of weeks ago so know that every once in awhile, for no reason, it quits working. Mine would print but not scan! I went to Dell, downloaded updated drivers and this seemed to fix the problem. I had to do the scanning through the program, not by pushing the buttons, tho.
My ink cartridge hold for the black cartridge tab
Not an easy fix, the holder is secured in quite well and unless your a wiz with the screwdriver, I would not recommend it, but if you are it is quite the challenge and fun!!!
For the price of the spare part from dell you can purchase a replacement printer. Simply contact Dell Services in your country for a price on a new Cartridge Carriage!
