It would be helpfulful if your query listed the OS of the computer connected to the printer as failure to do so makes a respondant have to address multiple solutions.
The solution common to both Windows and Mac computers generally involves removal of the printer from listings as a device attached to the computer followed by reinstallation of the printer. With the Apple computers:
- Click the Apple icon in the top left of the screen.
- Click System Preferences.
- Click Print & Fax.
- If the padlock in the bottom left is locked:
Click it, enter your password and click OK.
- Click the - button. to remove the printer and the + to add it again leaving the options on default.
These common procedures are listed on:

Basically, after removing the printer programmatically and detaching it from the computer, reattach it and follow the installation dialogue boxes. If there is a glitch (failure to install), try installing the drivers manually.
If the OS is Windows then remove the printer using the printers and scanners menu, then just follow the add printer dialogues. As with the Mac's, if installation fails, try installing the drivers manually.
The 306 error refers to a "communications" error between computer and printer.

The easiest fix for this error is to perform a power cycle. Doing so will flush out any broken configuration and forces the printer to add a new configuration. Here is how to do it.
Unplug your Printers power cord as well as the USB cable that is connected to your PC.
Keep the printer powered off for at least 3 minutes. After three minutes, plug the power cord and USB cable back and turn it on.
Check for any improvements after the printer restarts. If not, continue the troubleshooting steps.
Power off the printer again.
Open the printer’s lid for the scanner. Turn on the printer again keeping the lid open.
Close the lid after the printer restarts. Check for any improvements.

- Firstly, unplug the power and the USB cables from the printer.
- Open the cartridge door and press down the Power button.
- Continue to hold the Power button while plugging the power cord into the wall socket.
- Keep holding the Power button until the printer starts resetting itself.
- Once all the lights are on, you may release it.
- Wait for the green power light to turn off.
- Then, press and release the Power button quickly twice.
- The green light should blink for a few more seconds and finally stabilize.
- Feel free to close the cartridge door and try printing again.
The
5b00 error is often caused by ink spills on your printer in. The same applies to a full ink absorber or full waste ink counter, so reset the ink absorber.

Hi Bryan,
if you installed the printer by USB, the computer will have installed the drivers for that connection. ( Although USB is Plug and Play ) I,d refer to your user manual regarding bluetooth connectivity, also your printer.
The bluetooth device ( printer ) usually has to transmit signals, to be detected by the Computer. You,ll probably find that if you enable bluetooth on the Laptop. And turn the bluetooth on the Printer ( if Applicable ) by turning on/off or other function ( sync et,c ) the laptop will sense the Printers signal.
Once you have a communication between the two your setup.
I,d suggest unplugging the USB, as the laptops software/hardware, will assume that the printer already has an adequate connection, and will look no further.
Hoipe this resolves your questions regarding Bluetooth Connectivity.
Mike @ compurepair.
