The s/w is very touchy about this. If not, rip it all out and do it precisely as directed. -- BobF.

It is not just the fact that it is loaded, it must be done in the sequence described in the installation instructors including plugging in all the cables and powering up the printer. It is connected via USB, is it not? Your wireless is irrelevant. -- BobF.
