Nope..mine is the only computer in the building that
cannot print to it. I use the same drivers on all the
machines so I don't think thats the case. It does not give
any error messages except that the test page failed to
print. But if you go to the Printer's control panel,
Windows 2k shows that it is ready to print. Strange huh?
