Yeah, this one's common. It's likely in a deep power-saving mode. The printer has a Sleep Mode that uses about 0.7W and a Power Off Mode that uses about 0.2W.
Fix:
- Press the printer's power button firmly. You might need to hold it for a couple of seconds to wake it from Sleep or Power Off Mode.
- Check the power connection. The rated voltage is AC 100–240V universal. Ensure the cord is fully seated at the printer and the outlet.
If that didn't work:
- The 1.44" color LCD might have failed. Try a full power cycle: unplug the printer for 60 seconds, then plug it back in.
- If the display remains dead after a cycle, the unit may need service. It has a 2-year limited warranty with registration.
Heads up: For standalone copying, the display should be active. If you only need to copy, the printer can do that without a PC, but the display is needed for navigation.
