Satellite S70-A-11H web camera image quality is not good

Hi,
Running windows 8.1 which came with the laptop.
New out of the box.
As per title.
I find the image quality of the camera image to be very grainy, poor color etc.
When I start the web camera using the search bar on the right, it starts using the Microsoft application, when you scroll down to settings all that is available under settings/options is Photo aspect ratio, Grid lines, Location info.
I have been in touch with Toshiba Tech support who advised to do a Laptop refresh, which I did.
This made no difference.
After which they asked me to find the Toshiba web camera application on the laptop, this should have been in the Program Files folder in the Toshiba folder.
This application does not exist on my laptop.
The tech checked the same model laptop that he had available, which I was told when he selected the web camera, it opened using the Toshiba Web camera application, not Microsoft.
I have looked at other Toshiba laptops with web cameras, and found the image quality to be better. Unable to get to settings as these laptops were on display and in demo mode, hence locked down to some extent.
I can't believe that a web camera in this day and age for this value of laptop to have such poor image quality. My digital camera from 10year ago has better image quality.
I have checked through the laptop, and I do not have this application installed.
I have checked for updated drivers and software for my laptop, and cannot find this application to be applicable for my laptop. Drivers etc appear to be up to date.
I would like to know, do other users of this S series have any issue of camera image quality.
When the camera is selected what application is being used, Toshiba or Microsoft.
Is Toshiba web camera application applicable to Windows 8.1, as I cannot see it listed for 8.1
Does this sound like a hardware fault or a application/software issue.
Any direction or help on this matter would be appreciated, as I am getting to the point of returning this laptop for a refund.
Thanks in advance.
D.
Yes, I have tried using the FORCE!

> The tech checked the same model laptop that he had available, which I was told when he selected the web camera, it opened using the Toshiba Web camera application, not Microsoft.
The Toshiba webcam application is available for Win 7 system but the Win 8 and Windows 8.1 system use the own Microsoft webcam application.
> I have looked at other Toshiba laptops with web cameras, and found the image quality to be better.
Different Toshiba notebooks are equipped with different webcams.
Satellite S70-A-11H was equipped with a *0.92 mega pixel webcam*
A Satellite A660 for example was equipped with an _1.3M mega pixel webcam_
So there is a difference in webcam resolution

Re: Satellite A660 - Toshiba Utilities - Web Camera Application missing

I have a new Satellite A660 with inbuiilt web camera, but there is no Toshiba software (as stated in the Manual) to run the web camera, nor the face recognition software.
I havent checked anything else yet but not in Programs directory and nowhere on the Start menu.
Any help as to where to find the software ?

I agree with Paolo30, if the webcam is available on this notebook, then an right software should be installed as well. Go to the Toshiba driver page and check for your model:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
[Australian Toshiba Driver Page|http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support]
However, on my laptop I haven't installed any Toshiba webcam utility myself, Windows made it by default. And it runs..... Maybe, it will work better with original Toshiba driver but I don't use webcam at all.

I burned my first iDVD andpicture quality is not good. Originals are excellent. My photos are shot in raw or jpeg, both are not sharp when I view my DVD. I viewed it on my 1080 dpi tv and my new apple computer.

There are many ways to produce slide shows using iPhoto, iMovie or iDVD and some limit the number of photos you can use (iDVD has a 99 chapter (slide) limitation).
If what you want is what I want, namely to be able to use high resolution photos (even 300 dpi tiff files), to pan and zoom individual photos, use a variety of transitions, to add and edit music or commentary, place text exactly where you want it, and to end up with a DVD that looks good on both your Mac and a TV - in other words end up with and end result that does not look like an old fashioned slide show from a projector - you may be interested in how I do it. You don't have to do it my way, but the following may be food for thought!
Firstly you need proper software to assemble the photos, decide on the duration of each, the transitions you want to use, and how to pan and zoom individual photos where required, and add proper titles. For this I use Photo to Movie. You can read about what it can do on their website:
http://www.lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php
(Other users here use the alternative FotoMagico: http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/homevspro/ which you may prefer - I have no experience with it.)
Neither of these are freeware, but are worth the investment if you are going to do a lot of slide shows. Read about them in detail, then decide which one you feel is best suited to your needs.
Once you have timed and arranged and manipulated the photos to your liking in Photo to Movie, it exports the file to iMovie as a DV stream. You can add music in Photo to Movie, but I prefer doing this in iMovie where it is easier to edit. You can now further edit the slide show in iMovie just as you would a movie, including adding other video clips, then send it to iDVD 7, or Toast, for burning.
You will be pleasantly surprised at how professional the results can be!
To simply create a slide show in iDVD 7 onwards from images in iPhoto or stored in other places on your hard disk or a connected server, look here:

Capture Web Cam image in APEX and Upload into the Database

Overview
By using a flash object, you should be able to interface with a usb web cam connected to the client machine. Their are a couple of open source ones that I know about, but the one I chose to go with is by Taboca Labs and is called CamCanvas. This is released under the MIT license, and it is at version 0.2, so not very mature - but in saying that it seems to do the trick. The next part is to upload a snapshot into the database - in this particular implementation, it is achieved by taking a snapshot, and putting that data into the canvas object. This is a new HTML5 element, so I am not certain what the IE support would be like. Once you have the image into the canvas, you can then use the provided function convertToDataURL() to convert the image into a Base64 encoded string, which you can then use to convert into to a BLOB. There is however one problem with the Base64 string - APEX has a limitation of 32k for and item value, so can't be submitted by normal means, and a workaround (AJAX) has to be implemented.
Part 1. Capturing the Image from the Flash Object into the Canvas element
Set up the Page
Required Files
Download the tarball of the webcam library from: https://github.com/taboca/CamCanvas-API-/tarball/master
Upload the necessary components to your application. (The flash swf file can be got from one of the samples in the Samples folder. In the root of the tarball, there is actually a swf file, but this seems to be a different file than of what is in the samples - so I just stick with the one from the samples)
Page Body
Create a HTML region, and add the following:
    <div class="container">
     <object id="iembedflash" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="320" height="240">
          <param name="movie" value="#APP_IMAGES#camcanvas.swf" />
          <param name="quality" value="high" />
          <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" />
          <embed allowScriptAccess="always" id="embedflash" src="#APP_IMAGES#camcanvas.swf" quality="high" width="320" height="240"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" mayscript="true" />
    </object>
    </div>
<p><a href="javascript:captureToCanvas()">Capture</a></p>
<canvas style="border:1px solid yellow" id="canvas" width="320" height="240"></canvas>That will create the webcam container, and an empty canvas element for the captured image to go into.
Also, have a hidden unprotected page item to store the Base64 code into - I called mine P2_IMAGE_BASE64
HTML Header and Body Attribute
Add the Page HTML Body Attribute as:
onload="init(320,240)"
JavaScript
Add the following in the Function and Global Variable Declarations for the page (mostly taken out of the samples provided)
//Camera relations functions
var gCtx = null;
var gCanvas = null;
var imageData = null;
var ii=0;
var jj=0;
var c=0;
function init(ww,hh){
     gCanvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
     var w = ww;
     var h = hh;
     gCanvas.style.width = w + "px";
     gCanvas.style.height = h + "px";
     gCanvas.width = w;
     gCanvas.height = h;
     gCtx = gCanvas.getContext("2d");
     gCtx.clearRect(0, 0, w, h);
     imageData = gCtx.getImageData( 0,0,320,240);
function passLine(stringPixels) {
     //a = (intVal >> 24) & 0xff;
     var coll = stringPixels.split("-");
     for(var i=0;i<320;i++) {
          var intVal = parseInt(coll);
          r = (intVal >> 16) & 0xff;
          g = (intVal >> 8) & 0xff;
          b = (intVal ) & 0xff;
          imageData.data[c+0]=r;
          imageData.data[c+1]=g;
          imageData.data[c+2]=b;
          imageData.data[c+3]=255;
          c+=4;
     if(c>=320*240*4) {
          c=0;
          gCtx.putImageData(imageData, 0,0);
function captureToCanvas() {
     flash = document.getElementById("embedflash");
     flash.ccCapture();
     var canvEle = document.getElementById('canvas');
     $s('P2_IMAGE_BASE64', canvEle.toDataURL());//Assumes hidden item name is P2_IMAGE_BASE64
     clob_Submit();//this is a part of part (AJAX submit value to a collection) two
}In the footer region of the page (which is just a loading image to show whilst the data is being submitted to the collection [hidden by default]) :<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#processing3.gif" id="AjaxLoading"
style="display:none;position:absolute;left:45%;top:45%;padding:10px;border:2px solid black;background:#FFF;" />If you give it a quick test, you should be able to see the webcam feed and capture it into the canvas element by clicking the capture link, in between the two elements - it might through a JS error since the clob_Submit() function does not exist yet.
*Part 2. Upload the image into the Database*
As mentioned in the overview, the main limitation is that APEX can't submit values larger than 32k, which I hope the APEX development team will be fixing this limitation in a future release, the workaround isn't really good from a maintainability perspective.
In the sample applications, there is one that demonstrates saving values to the database that are over 32k, which uses an AJAX technique: see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/packaged-apps-090453.html#LARGE.
*Required Files*
From the sample application, there is a script you need to upload, and reference in your page. So you can either install the sample application I linked to, or grab the script from the demonstration I have provided - its called apex_save_large.js.
*Create a New Page*
Create a page to Post the large value to (I created mine as 1000), and create the following process, with the condition that Request = SAVE. (All this is in the sample application for saving large values).declare
     l_code clob := empty_clob;
begin
     dbms_lob.createtemporary( l_code, false, dbms_lob.SESSION );
     for i in 1..wwv_flow.g_f01.count loop
          dbms_lob.writeappend(l_code,length(wwv_flow.g_f01(i)),wwv_flow.g_f01(i));
     end loop;
     apex_collection.create_or_truncate_collection(p_collection_name => wc_pkg_globals.g_base64_collection);
     apex_collection.add_member(p_collection_name => wc_pkg_globals.g_base64_collection,p_clob001 => l_code);
     htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := TRUE;
end;I also created a package for storing the collection name, which is referred to in the process, for the collection name:create or replace
package
wc_pkg_globals
as
g_base64_collection constant varchar2(40) := 'BASE64_IMAGE';
end wc_pkg_globals;That is all that needs to be done for page 1000. You don't use this for anything else, *so go back to edit the camera page*.
*Modify the Function and Global Variable Declarations* (to be able to submit large values.)
The below again assumes the item that you want to submit has an item name of 'P2_IMAGE_BASE64', the condition of the process on the POST page is request = SAVE, and the post page is page 1000. This has been taken srtaight from the sample application for saving large values.//32K Limit workaround functions
function clob_Submit(){
          $x_Show('AjaxLoading')
          $a_PostClob('P2_IMAGE_BASE64','SAVE','1000',clob_SubmitReturn);
function clob_SubmitReturn(){
          if(p.readyState == 4){
                         $x_Hide('AjaxLoading');
                         $x('P2_IMAGE_BASE64').value = '';
          }else{return false;}
function doSubmit(r){
$x('P2_IMAGE_BASE64').value = ''
     flowSelectAll();
     document.wwv_flow.p_request.value = r;
     document.wwv_flow.submit();
}Also, reference the script that the above code makes use of, in the page header<script type="text/javascript" src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#apex_save_large.js"></script>Assuming the script is located in workspace images, and not associated to a specific app. Other wise reference #APP_IMAGES#
*Set up the table to store the images*CREATE TABLE "WC_SNAPSHOT"
"WC_SNAPSHOT_ID" NUMBER NOT NULL ENABLE,
"BINARY" BLOB,
CONSTRAINT "WC_SNAPSHOT_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("WC_SNAPSHOT_ID")
create sequence seq_wc_snapshot start with 1 increment by 1;
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER "BI_WC_SNAPSHOT" BEFORE
INSERT ON WC_SNAPSHOT FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
SELECT seq_wc_snapshot.nextval INTO :NEW.wc_snapshot_id FROM dual;
END;
Then finally, create a page process to save the image:declare
v_image_input CLOB;
v_image_output BLOB;
v_buffer NUMBER := 64;
v_start_index NUMBER := 1;
v_raw_temp raw(64);
begin
--discard the bit of the string we dont need
select substr(clob001, instr(clob001, ',')+1, length(clob001)) into v_image_input
from apex_collections
where collection_name = wc_pkg_globals.g_base64_collection;
dbms_lob.createtemporary(v_image_output, true);
for i in 1..ceil(dbms_lob.getlength(v_image_input)/v_buffer) loop
v_raw_temp := utl_encode.base64_decode(utl_raw.cast_to_raw(dbms_lob.substr(v_image_input, v_buffer, v_start_index)));
dbms_lob.writeappend(v_image_output, utl_raw.length(v_raw_temp),v_raw_temp);
v_start_index := v_start_index + v_buffer;
end loop;
insert into WC_SNAPSHOT (binary) values (v_image_output); commit;
end;Create a save button - add some sort of validation to make sure the hidden item has a value (i.e. image has been captured). Make the above conditional for request = button name so it only runs when you click Save (you probably want to disable this button until the data has been completely submitted to the collection - I haven't done this in the demonstration).
Voila, you should have now be able to capture the image from a webcam. Take a look at the samples from the CamCanvas API for extra effects if you wanted to do something special.
And of course, all the above assumed you want a resolution of 320 x 240 for the image.
Disclaimer: At time of writing, this worked with a logitech something or rather webcam, and is completely untested on IE.
Check out a demo: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=trents_demos:webcam_i (my image is a bit blocky, but i think its just my webcam. I've seen others that are much more crisp using this) Also, just be sure to wait for the progress bar to dissappear before clicking Save.
Feedback welcomed.

Hmm, maybe for some reason you aren't getting the base64 version of the saved image? Is the collection getting the full base64 string? Seems like its not getting any if its no data found.
The javascript console is your friend.
Also, in the example i used an extra page, from what one of the examples on apex packages apps had. But since then, I found this post by Carl: http://carlback.blogspot.com/2008/04/new-stuff-4-over-head-with-clob.html - I would use this technique for submitting the clob, over what I have done - as its less hacky. Just sayin.

Web camera video quality in Flex

Hi, I have a flex app which turns on a web camera and shows
the video from the camera. The problem is that the video resolution
is a bit choppy or pixilated. I know it’s not because of the
quality of the webcam since the video is very clear on other
players. Anyone have an idea how to make the resolution clearer?

Hi John
Sorry i don't have the answer, but i'm interested in your question because i have the same kind of issue when i import in iMovie 08, 09 and iMovie HD from my Sony SR10 AVCDH camera.
I just can say that when i export directly from iMovie to iDVD the quality is bad; this seems to be a well known problem and it is recommended to export video using the Quicktime with H264. With that method, i can obtain good quality in the STATIC images, but during the panoramic movements of the camera the final result (i mean a DVD on my cathodic TV) is disappointing, with a "jerky" rendering.
You can download on my iDisk an exemple of it at: http://public.me.com/leclercqpascal
When i compare with the same sequence treated on the PC Sony's software, i find in the latter case a perfectly smooth result.
The problem is the same when i import from the camera to FCE.
Help welcome, because i would be disappointed to resort to a PC software!

Satellite L305D-S5893 Web Cam Help Please?!?!

So I just got this new Satellite L305D-S5893 and it has a web cam but I have NO clue how to use it. I checked the resource guide on how to use it and there's nothing in there.. I looked in my start menu.. under programs and found a "Camera Assistant Software" but that does nothing when I click on it? So can anyone help me and tell me how to use the web cam on this thing? Thanks in advance =D
Solved!
Go to Solution.

When you open the camera assist software it usually hides the program on the left side of the screen. Try moving your mouse around the edges of the screen until it pops up. Or you can look for the utility in the toolbar and click "show toolbar". Then you can click on "start camera".
To make sure the camera is detected you can look in device manager. Look for "Imaging devices" and then make sure it shows Chiconey USB 2.0 camera.
Hope this helps

Tecra M11-17V with Windows 7 - Web Cam image is very grainy

Hi,
Yesterday my webcam (built into the laptop) worked perfectly, today it doesn't....
Whenever I use it now, the image is very grainy, almost like a tartan pattern of criss-crossing lines, but I can still just about make out myself in the background. Movement and sound are still being recorded, just the image is strange.
Please help! Has anyone else had this happen? Is this something I can fix myself, or is it a hardware problem? I have had this laptop about 3months, from brand new, and this is the first problem I've had...
Many thanks,
Dom

Hi Paolo,
Thanks for the tips, but I'm afraid my camera is still out of action....
I've double checked that the protective lens film has been removed, and I've disabled/re-enabled the camera device, updated the camera driver, and completely reinstalled all the camera software to no effect. I've also ruled out conflicting software issues, as the problem persists for both skype calls and the laptop's face recognition software used when logging into my account.
The frustrating thing is that the fault happened suddenly halfway through a skype call. It was working perfectly on minute, and broken the next (seemingly irreversible.... fingers crossed). I had used skype for a mammoth 3hr call the night before, but I hope that wouldn't have "burnt out" the brand new camera...
Do you, or anyone else, know if sounds like a physical problem? Are web cam hardware faults common? I have never dropped the laptop, though it does commute with me on the train into work everyday...
When I first got the laptop, the inbuilt fingerprint scanner didn't work very accurately until I updated the driver software. Is it common for faults to suddenly appear when drivers become "out of date"? Any chance these problems could be related?
Thanks again for your help,
Dom

Problems with downgrade from Win 8.1 to Win 7 64bit on Satellite S70-A-11H

Hi,
My daughter already has a Tosh laptop with Win 7 64bit which is several years old and has seen better days, so for Christmas I bought her a new S70-A-11H notebook with Win 8.1 pre-installed.
She hates it. In fact she will not use the new laptop at all unless it has Win 7 on it.
For people that do not use a tablet or a Windows phone and like a desktop feeling machine Windows 8 does not work for us.
Now I work in a niche IT role using numerous OS such as Microsoft Windows (XP, Win7, Server 2003, Server 2008) and Solaris as well as a bit of RedHat.
Now my Win8 experience is zero.
I thought it would be simple enough to install a retail copy of Win7 with SP1 64bit onto this notebook.
Not so easy as it turns out.
When I boot from the Win 7 install DVD the installer program locks up as the Win 7 logo starts to appear on the screen. If I try an install in safe mode the last driver that appears to load when the lock up occurs is disk.sys.
So the question is how can I install Win 7 64bit SP1 onto this notebook using a retail copy of Win7?
Any ideas would be much appreciated.

*I found the reason for this problem* and the solution outside of this forum.
If anyone else is interested _the issue is cause by the use of GPT partions on the 8.1 build._
To overcome this and install a fresh copy of Win7 you can do this:
-Shut down Windows 8 while pressing the Shift key to completely power off.
-Power on and press F2 while the Toshiba logo is displayed to enter the UEFI Setup Menu.
-Go to the Security tab and set the "Secure Boot" setting to "Disabled".
-Go to the Advanced tab, enter "System Configuration" and set the Boot Mode to "CSM Boot."
-Press F10 to save and exit.
Go to http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ and download gparted boot image. Make bootable gparted cd and use it to delete the GPT partitions on the HDD.
Now just install Win7 64bit as you normally would creating whatever partitions you like during the install process. Of course you must have a new licence key for Win7 for this to work.
To finish off you will need to download all the required drivers from the Toshiba website to suit Win7 64bit. This is quite tedious as some of the files are huge. I got just the basics that I thought I'd need and that ended up being over 1Gb of files.
I'm so pleased I managed to get rid of that nasty Win8 interface.
This is probably not the only way to do this, but this worked for me.

Pearl 8220 camera image quality is poor, poor, poor

The photo image quality of the camera on my BB Pearl 8220 is extremely grainy and dark.
I understand this is a cell phone camera and expectations are low to begin with, but this is unacceptably low quality. The flash appears to function properly but that doesn't matter because the image quality is poor even for pictures taken in full sunlight.
Are there camera adjustments or settings that I haven't found that can remedy this problem? The ones I HAVE found have had no effect.
Thanks for any help.

i've taken some good pics with our phones...
I did notice that you need to be extremely steady (no built in "camera shake"), but other than that, its all been good.
I used the options to make the pics as large as possible too; but I do that with our digital camera as well. I use Paint Shop to edit them on our PC.
Where there is a will, there is a way...
If there is no way; there is always a bigger hammer.

Caling Web Camera Image in Forms

Hi Sir,
i want to take a photo from web camera and want to display the photo on image item on my form.

Again you need to use timer for calling each image taken from camera
the camera is taking the photos in the my pictures quickcam images folder.
for this you need to use the dir/b c:\mypictures\quickcam\images >zz.txt
then use the text_io package to get the each and every file to read.
then remove all the files and use read_image_file with the parameters as received now from the text_io package
after opening the file zz.txt.
timer should be of 1000 mili seconds.

Web page image quality to printer

I have an Epson cx7800 which I have aligned and cleaned the heads.
The image quality of the print from my G5 iMac to the printer is sort of like a double image of the colored text (for instance, the word DVD will be printed twice, in a blurry fashion, in red and yellow). When I just copy a page from the printer, the quality is fine. It's just the images I'm getting from the Mac to the printer that are poor.
I get this same problem when I print a CD cover from iTunes.
Is there any way I can improve these images?
Thanks.

Suggest that you contact Epson by phone, email and/or check out their Epson cx7800 Troubleshooting Guide link for answers. Did the printer come with a manual?
You posted no system info. Therefore, I also suggest that you also cross-post in one of the "Printer Forums" of whichever OS you are using.
Good luck!

Web camera fails to initialize, not in device manager

Hi,
I have a Satellite L650D with Windows 7 'Home Prem' and have recent issues with my webcam. All was running smoothly for a year or more until one day this error message appeared " Web camera initialization failed. Please restart application or computer ".
I also had trouble on Sykpe with the camera failing mid-conversation then not loading at all. I have un-installed and re-installed Skype in the hope that it was the problem...unfortunately not. Then after searching through the forum and Toshiba's website, I checked my application and Device Manager and was not even able to locate the device, it is not listed.
I am more than happy to try anything to fix this problem ( although I am not very computer literate! ) and would really appreciate any advice anyone can offer!
Many thanks =)

Web cams in IE but not firefox

The Hogs Breath Saloon web cam wont run on FireFox4. It runs on the older version no problem.
Duval St web cam has the same problem. I like to keep an eye on Key West so I look at these every day.

There are a couple issues here that might be the culprit. One is that the player is hidden using a variety of techniques and Firefox often suppresses hidden content because it can be annoying not to be able to control your experience with media. Another possible issue is that the embed tag doesn't specify a content type. Firefox appears to be guessing anyway, and in my case asking whether to activate the QuickTime plugin, but then nothing plays.
To test what would happen if both of those were addressed, you can run this script using Firefox's Web Console. It grabs the address of the media and creates a new embed that is visible and specifies the content type. Here's how to use it:
Select the following long line of code and copy it:
function reEmbedMpeg(em){var el=document.createElement("embed"); el.setAttribute("type","audio/mpeg"); el.setAttribute("src",em.src); el.setAttribute("style","height:20px;width:200px;position:fixed;right:0;top:0"); document.body.appendChild(el);} reEmbedMpeg(document.querySelector("embed"));
When viewing the problem page, press Ctrl+Shift+k to open the Web Console in the lower part of the tab.
Paste the code next to the caret (>>) on the bottom line and press Enter to run it. A player should appear in the upper left corner, the progress bar should show downloading and then the content should play.
Obviously it's not practical to hack every web page you find, but if this is your site or you would be interesting in contacting the owner, hopefully this post will help in getting this working in Firefox.

Aperture Web Journal - image quality?

Hi,
I process pictures for web in Photoshop and then back to AP3. Everything is fine and picture is just like I want. So I do this because of this AP Export problem with sharpening when you rezize pictures to web size.
When I create new Web Journal the image loses it's sharpnes. If I don't do something wrong, it means that AP3 Web function is worthless to me. In iWeb, I think, quality is better, but with AP3 it's so easy to make web pages.

Suggest that you contact Epson by phone, email and/or check out their Epson cx7800 Troubleshooting Guide link for answers. Did the printer come with a manual?
You posted no system info. Therefore, I also suggest that you also cross-post in one of the "Printer Forums" of whichever OS you are using.
Good luck!
