Nothing prints
Check the printer display. Is it alive and well? Is it crying for help?
Check the data cable from
the computer. Has some klutz tripped
over it? You may want to turn off the
computer and the printer and examine the
connectors. Disconnect both of them and
look at both faces. Are they apparently
in condition to connect correctly?
From the printer front
panel, command print of a test page. If
the correct and appropriate command there
produces nothing, the computer will not be
able to get it to print.
Use Wordpad or Write to
print a sample text file. A no-go here
means a problem at the Windows level, and
QuickBooks will not be able to print.
Look at the Windows
Printers group or Print Manger. The
system could be stuck on a file that can’t be
printed. You may have to delete the job
or shut down printing and start again.
