Communication with the printer failed

The following message appears when attempting to print: "Communication with the printer failed"

There are several possible causes for this message to appear. Perform each step until the message has been cleared.

  1. Connect the MultiPASS directly to the USB (Universal Serial Bus) port on the computer. Do not connect the MultiPASS to your computer's keyboard or through a bus-powered hub. (Bus-powered hub is one that is powered by the USB itself as opposed to an outside power source)
  2. The printer may be busy. Wait momentarily until the printer has completed printing, scanning, or faxing.
  3. (Mac Only) In the Extensions folder, confirm that IWPrintClassDriver, ContentionLib, and the MultiPASS Printer Driver Extensions are enabled.
