I has this problem also. I am really new to computers, so reading the manual is like reading rubbish. have you tried checking what connection the computer is hooked up to on the printer. for instance....my computer has a fax, photo copier, and a scanner, therefor, i have to choose what setting i need for the printer to work. it is a simple as one click.

I suggest you replace the printer since it is obsolete. Printers have come way down in cost.

The issue you are experiencing seems to be with the corrupted printer drivers or may be due to the improper installation of the drivers.\n\nTherefore, I suggest you to completely uninstall the printer drivers and then reinstall the printer drivers.\n\nIf you are using Windows XP operating system then please follow the instructions to uninstall the printer drivers.\n\n1. Click Start, Control Panel.\n2. Click Add and Remove Programs.\n3. Select the printer from Currently Installed Programs list.\n4. Click on Change and Remove button and proceed with the uninstallation window.\n5. Restart the Computer.\n\nNow visit the appropriate printer web site to download and install the full featured drivers for the printer.\n\nThe information I have provided should answer your question.

If it worked properly at first, and it is locked in correctly it may have been handled too much and is soiled. Remove the cartridge and clean the contacts in the printer socket and the cartridge itself with rubbing alcohol. CAreful not to leave bits of paper or rag behind. Inspect areas with bright light and magnifying glass and remove any debris.\nIt could also use a reinstall of software.\nIf it isn't available, quite often deleting the software, shutting off the computer with the printer turned on, wait 5 minutes and turn the computer back on. It should discover the printer and reinstall appropriate software for it.

It's more due to a bad driver call or a program call then anything else.\nThe best course of action is to un install the printer and then re-install the program.

YOU ARE HAVING "SPOOL" PROBLEMS.\n\nMost of the time, you can reinstall the Drivers. ( The Disk) that came with it.\n\nYou might do a uninstall first, just to avoid any other issues. \n If you have only 1 printer, delete anyother printer programs you have, they may be conflicting.\n\n\nGood Luck.

Maybe the circuitry is fried.  Reinstall the printer driver, make sure none of the plastic strips are still in the printer cartridge and then reboot your computer.

Could be a software glitch.\n\nUninstall your printer drivers, disconnect the printer from your PC, and reboot the PC.  This will "remove the printer from being recognized as installed.\n\nReinstall your drivers, reconnect your printer, and reboot the PC.\n\nThe PC should now recognize your printer correctly.\n\nTry printing  and see how it goes.\n\nHope this helps.

Sometimes switching USB ports works. Plug the printer into the modems port and put the modem in another port. Keep switching your USB around and rebooting to see what works. That often works, I have done it a lot with my three printers, keyboard, two external drives and a modem. Every time I add something I have to "rearrange". I think it may be related to the boot order but I have never been able to prove it.\n\nGood luck.

Try re-installing the printer driver then, fix your settings. It should work well this time, else consider virus scan for your system; if that does not work, re-install your operating system.

For Novices (longer, easier):\n\nAfter restoring your computer, disconnect the printer and start it up. Then, once you are logged on, turn off the computer, connect the printer cable, and turn it on. When you log on, a little bubble from the system tray should pop up, saying Found New Hardware. Click on this bubble and it should open a Found New Hardware wizard. It will say to insert your installation CD. Insert the original CD that came with the printer into your disk drive and click next. The wizard should install it for you or provide you with further instructions.\n\nFor Comfortable Users (a little harder, shorter):\n\n\n1) Go to Start, then click on Control Panel.\n2) Click on Printers and Other Hardware, then Add a Printer\n3) Click next, then next again.\n4) When the wizard finds your printer, it will ask you to \n   insert your installation CD. Do so.\n5) It should install your printer, or provide you with more \n   instructions.\n\nHope this helps!
