Could you please help?

Hello,

On the PREFERENCES > PRINTERS AND SCANNERS window, the printer is here show as inactive, with a green light.

But when I try to print out (even a really light document), the light turns orange, saying that the printer is working.
On an other window, it says "printing on - connecting to the printer"... but nothing happens.


I've also tried with the driver rcommanded by Esquared… same non-result.


Could you please help?
