  My printer & computer are not talking to each other! The computer shows "spooling, printing, then it goes away. So I have changed printer "ports" not knowing what I was doing, so is that the problem? I have also tried unplugging it but forget which order to plug in -- USB first or electrical [email protected]

  First try printing with the printer directly connected to the computer without any switchbox, Zip drive, scanner or any other parallel port device connected to the same port. If this is the problem then install a second parallel card for LPT2.
  Make sure to use a printer cable no longer than 6 feet.
  Next make sure your hard disk has a minimum of 30 - 50MB contiguous space available to spool the data to be printed. Run Scandisk to make sure there are no cross linked files and then run Defrag to see if your hard disk needs to be defragmented.
  Your computer's parallel port must be set up properly for your printer.
  * Check how LPT1 is set in your computer's CMOS/BIOS setup. It should be set to either Standard (SPP), Normal, or Compatible (contact your computer manufacturer/vendor if necessary).
  * Check how LPT1 is set in Windows 95. If set to ECP Printer Port, you should change it to Standard Printer Port. An ECP or EPP port seems to cause some communication problems and out of paper messages.
