But sometimes I think I should have bitten the bullet and returned it to the retailer. When it does wok, I am happy with the result. To get it installed in the first place, I also used a Windows machine, plus the advice of a post elsewhere in this thread. Usually works, but is a pain in the neck. If I do start getting random characters, I pull out the paper tray to stop the printing, switch off main power, clear the print queue on the computer, wait a few minutes to calm myself down, and start again, leaving the B210 plenty of time to get organised. So I now make sure that the printer is fully ready (not in standby) before pressing "Print", and tend to avoid switching between wifi and USB connection (though they both work, usually). Perhaps your Preview and Acrobat reader have slightly different timing behaviour?
Perhaps that confuses it?Īlso, I think it needs a good time (30 secs to a minute?) to switch on properly after being powered off or in standby, and I get the impression the 'random characters problem' is more likely if I launch the print command before the B210 has woken up properly. I have mine connected via USB cable and via wifi (and have defined 2 different printers in my MacOS settings: one via wifi the other via USB). Not sure what causes theproblem for me, but I suspect some kind of timing issue or confusion inside the B210. But I have not noticed a correlation to using Apple Preview or Adobe reader. I also occasionally get a jumble of characters instead of the document, spread over loads of extra / unwanted new pages with just a few lines printed per page - see pic.

It's a shame that Xerox doesn't include these steps cleary in the installation instructions but anyway here you go.
It should work with any computer, actually! Doesn't require any drivers or driver downloads.
I was stuck on this as well, here is a solution that works on a Mac or Linux.
Given that WPS and the CentreWare seem not to work, do you think that the printer is DOA? Also can you tell me where I can download the Mac versions of the software I have also failed to connect to the router using WPS buttons.Īt least I can print - but my old brother HL-1250 did that as well.
