    « on: October 05, 2010, 10:27:30 AM »

    Okay, you need to provide a lot more information than you did in your first post. Everything you can think of that may be relevant.

      Thanks, all i got is the pages are in a queue. Have checked all cables and buttons. But nothing happens.  All seems to follow the process except will not print.

      Your definition of information and mine don't seem to be the same.

      1) Did the printer ever work?
      2) If so, what happened between the last time it worked and the first time it did not?
      3) Does the printer work in ANY application or does it fail no matter what you try to print?
      4) What is the make and model of the printer?
      5) What is the make and model of the computer? What OS are you using?
      6) Is the printer selected as the default print device?
      7) What steps have you taken to try to correct the problem (have you reinstalled the driver, for example)?

      Like that.
