Is the poll necessary?
Do other things print OK?
What happens when you try to print from IE?

OK, so what happens when you try to print from IE?
Just nothing?
Does the page then show up in the printer jobs?

Yes the pages will shows blank on the printer.  Like for example on right hand of balnk page would display Page 1 of 1 and at the bottom left is would show: file://C:\WINNT\TEMP.

I'll be honest with you, I'm not a Win2K guy.
So I'm not too sure now what the problem is.
Recap: Win2K, IE6, IE doesn't print properly, it prints an almost blank page, but everything else does print OK.
So I'm pretty sure it's not the printer, the connection to the PC, or the driver.
Hopefully someone else can help you out here, we have several Win2K gurus here and someone else may have some better ideas.
Sorry for wasting your time, at least I tried and you're no worse off now than you were before I started.

We need more information, what do you mean you cannot print when using IE? What kind of printer do you have and how is it connected, through network, usb, lpt1, or what? Does the printer show up when you go to file and click print (or ctrl+p). Does the printer not receive the job from IE? Or does the printer just not like you? :-?

I would upgrade to IE7 or Firefox; both have much better print engines.

IE7 requires:
Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2)
Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1)

But, you might try Firefox.
