Does not print

Double check all doors/ rollers for small pieces of paper stuck in the rollers. Sometimes just opening the door in question and closing will reset the paper jam sensors. Paper jams can be smaller than your pinky finger nail. So double check,

Comment if it still isn't working.

Here's what the owner's manual has to say:

Error status (Amber, blinking): you cannot continue to use the
printer. Intervention is required to recover from the error. Fatal
errors are irrecoverable and require a service call.

Blinking 1 (2S cycle)
An error has occurred but
printing can continue if you
press the ON LINE or CANCEL
switch.

Blinking 2 (500mS cycle)
An error has occurred. You
need to replace consumables
or remove jammed paper, for
example. The printer then
recovers from the error and
printing becomes possible
again.

Blinking 3 (120mS cycle)
A serious error has occurred.
rebooting or a service call is
required.

The Status Monitor in Windows provides a readable description
of the printer status corresponding to the indications of the
LEDs. In Mac, the printer driver provides status information
once you have sent a document to print. In Windows, if you
have the Status Monitor Preferences set to Pop up on alerts,
this readable message will be presented on screen whenever
an abnormal condition occurs.

There's no further information. Sorry.

Problem
Dell 1700 printer prints out a page announcing that “the photoconductor has reached its useable life and it needs to be replaced for a new one”. You replace the photoconductor for a new one and the error light is still blinking and the printer keeps on printing the above mentioned page.
Solution
Steps to Reset the Photoconductor:

1. Power off printer
2. Open the front cover.
3. Press the continue button; while pressing the continue button power on the printer and wait (still pressing the continue button) until the error led is solid, then release the continue button.
4. Close the front door, all light should be solid.
5. Wait until POST finishes.
6. Press the Cancel button 4 times slowly, the toner led should be solid.
7. Press the Continue button until all lights go up and down, then release; the Toner Low led is solid.
8. Power off printer and then back on.
9. Press continue button once, print a test page.
10. Check the information about the photoconductor in test page, it should display an OK status.

Note: if these steps don’t work for the first time repeat three times. If still the steps don’t work, the printer needs to be replaced for a new one.

Hi, the problem can be related to any of a number of things. First of all make sure that there isn?t any extraordinary LED blinking. Every LED has a troubleshoot in the manual(which you can download here on Fixya). If there?s no blinking going on check for the following: The power supply to the printer, along with the line(cable and socket). That the ink cartridges fit well. You have paper in the tray, and there?s none stuck inside. The printer cover is well shut. All parts are well connected(such as the paper tray) If everything seems to be in order try connecting it to another computer? maybe the USB connection isn?t a 100 percent, and the communication between computer and printer is at fault, or there?s some software problems, or anything that?s computer related. Could also be router or print server problems if you are using either one. Check out the troubleshoot pages for your router here in Fixya, they contain reference to that on some routers.
