What is wrong with my printer?
I have a Dell series 7 printer(photo 966). Just put in new ink, and now it won't print anything from my computer. it works fine when i copy something, or print a test page, but when i try to send something to the printer to print it takes the paper in, sounds like its starting to print, then does nothing.... i tried troubleshooting it, but nothing worked. The ports are working proper, its set to online, its my default printer, and its not paused. can anyone help me? you will be my bestest friend forever if you can!!
i did all that too. (took me longer to find the darn cd that came with it) and still no luck :(

re-installing the drive, by what you have said it is a signal problem, not the printer. i would also suggest trying the test print function, you will find it under the utility's of the printer. also try printing using different programs on your computer, try printing a pic or word document to see if it is the program you are using. also you could try a full restart, you might of all ready but turn everything off and unplug everything, then wait ten seconds then plug it all back in and back one it sometimes works too. if not try the company's web sight if it is a common problem you will find it there.
hope this helps

community printer settings are set up as occasion those that are sitting by using your pc and you are the only individual who's can print to it. A networked printer putting occasion is that of the only interior the copier room that anybody prints to. confident you ought to use an area printer as a community printer. community and community are in basic terms putting that are given to the printers. an area printer it fairly is on a community could be utilized by using every person, even if it must be listed interior the community itemizing. The risks to utilising an area printer putting is that basically that pc linked to it may use it. utilising the community settings downside is that anybody can print to that printer and on occasion jobs are lost if there is to lots over flow.
