Learn how to test your printer by sending a test print page directly through Windows.
Important
The Windows test print is used to check if the printer is responding to commands sent by the operating system itself. If it is operating and printing normally from the driver, it will also work in Nex.
It is necessary to install the printer driver in Windows for it to work correctly. Simply plugging the printer cable into the computer is not enough for it to start printing.
It is possible for the printer to be correctly installed in the operating system but set to the wrong port. Click here to check how to change the input port in the printer driver.
