Okay Laverne, do you happen to be on a network? When you installed your printer during the printer wizard installation do you remember saying yes or no to the Do you print from Dos programs Window that comes up? If you can't remember then delete the printer by right clicking on it in the printer panel and choosing delete. Reinstall the printer and watch carefully to the question that I showed you above. If you get it, say yes to the question. What is the name of the Dos program that your printing from? You may need to go into the program and choose a Generic printer driver to be able to print. Try my suggestions and let me know how you make out and if you need any more help.

Good Luck!
Mike
