Problems and error messages
Unable to print PDF-files
If prints get stuck or disappear and do not get printed, this often is because of the on the size/format of the file the document was created in.
The solution is to save the document to another format eg: .doc, docx and then try
to upload the file again.
When printing directly, it is important to select the "Fit" option, so the document is adapted to the printer's print format.
Printer says it is the wrong paper size?
Try to select Tray 1 A4.
Next time, make sure your printout is not in, for example, Letter.
Only A4 or A3 format works.
