use the manual feed tray which should fold out on the front of the printer.

since the dell printer is offline when it is not connected to the router, that means the unit experiences connection problems. If you have internet on your house and the printer is offline, please go to www.dell.com and download the printer driver using your unit dell3100cn and check the device manager (Start > Run > type devmgmt.msc) if the driver was installed properly. Then check if the printer is online or not...

I had to actually change the settings in Microsoft Word to resolve this problem.

If you go to page setup > paper source > there should be lists for "first page" and "other pages".

You can set this to "as per printer settings" and hopefully it should work.

To be able to set up wireless printer configuration, there are three basic items that you need to have. They are a high-speed broadband Internet connection (with modem), a high speed wireless router and wireless network adaptors. These three items will be used in setting up the wireless printer. Assuming that there is already an existing network in the home or office space, then all that is needed to do to make the printer available in the network through the operating system's networking wizard. If not, then the network must first be established, only then the printer will be made available through that network.

toner cartridges check if they are properly seated in the proper position, also make sure they are closed properly.

Assuming that when you moved the printer you installed it back on top of the 250-sheet tray (it IS required for the 3100cn model), it's possible that you may have damaged the electrical inter-connection between the printer base and the 250-sheet tray unit.



Take the printer base back off the tray unit and set aside. Carefully examine the connector on the tray unit and make sure the bracket that contains the connector has not been bent or deformed. Get some help and tilt the printer back far enough that you can examine the mating connector underneath the printer. If no help is available, slide the edge of the printer off the edge of a stable surface only far enough to see the connection.
