Power comes on AND says resuming windows but the screen does not

Try holding down the power key to force it to power off. Power it back up again and you should get the Windows Resume Loader with the following options "Continue with resume" and "Delete resume data and continue with startup". I can't remember the exact wording of the options, it may be different but you need to select the later or second option "Delete resume data and continue with startup".

Have you tried updating the Graphics drivers? Some driver issues have been reported with Windows Vista and 7 coming out of resume and most are fixed by updating to the latest drivers?

recover system at all

Hi

if you do not have anything on it that you are desperate to keep you could try the factory
restore option

to do this

power up and press the ALT+F10 key a couple of times
this will hopefully take you into the factory restore option
then follow the on screen instructions

hopefully this will help you
many thanks

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. First of all please try to reset the printer by following the steps---

Turn the power off. Now hold down Resume button and press Power button. Keep holding down Power button and let the Resume button go. Press Resume button twice and then let both buttons go. Green light will flash then stop blinking. When Green light is solid, press Resume button 4 times. Now press the power button and the printer should turn off. If not, press the Power button once more.


If still the issue is not resolved, then please follow the procedure to uncheck the grayscale printing---

On the Windows desktop, click 'Start' then click 'Settings', then click 'Printers' (Windows XP: On the Start menu, click 'Printers and Faxes').

For Windows Vista: Click/Select 'Start' from the bottom left of the Windows screen, 'Control Panel', 'Hardware and Sound', and then Click on 'Printers'.

Note: If you are in 'Classic' view, Click 'Printers' directly from the 'Control Panel'.

For Windows 2000/XP/Vista: Right-click the printer icon, then click 'Printing Preferences'.

For Windows 98/Me: Right-click the printer icon, then click 'Properties' and then on the Main tab, click on the 'Grayscale Printing' check-box to remove the check-mark. Click the 'OK' button to save the settings.


Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.


Thanks
