There can be many reasons for printer does not print, to help you fix the issue please follow the steps given below:
-Make sure your printer is powered up and connected to your Windows computer according to the manufacturer's instructions.
-Next, try updating the printer driver on your computer. Printer problems sometimes come of out-of-date driver software, and can be solved by installing, or reinstalling, the latest driver.
-To find the latest driver for your printer, first check Windows Update, which is designed to detect the hardware connected to your computer and automatically notify you when new drivers are available:
-Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button, clicking All Programs, and then clicking Windows Update.
-In the left pane, click Check for updates, and then wait while Windows looks for the latest updates for your computer.
-If any updates are found, click Install updates. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

We have a Zebra 105SL thermal printer. When I print to it with any application, the data light comes on, but it doesn't print. It has ribbon, media, calibrated, no error lights

The data light indicates that the printer is receiving data. Hold the cancel key for 10 seconds while powering on. This will print printer configuration. Use to troubleshoot. If the data or format is wrong it will not print as you send data. Make sure you are using the 105SL printer driver. To test the printer functionality you can go to www.teklynx.com and download a demo copy of labelveiw, select the 105SL printer and try to print a simple label. If you can print with labelveiw then it is not a printer problem. Double check your driver and label format.

Why do i have to use a usb to be alble to print

The printer has to receive "data" and "commands" from your computer. The USB interface is used to transmit what the printer needs to receive. Other possible data-transfer interfaces, e.g., wireless, or parallel, may not be installed in your printer.

3 Model 2746's - 2 print custom label perfectly - the other does not.

could be the printer speed but, you may want to reinstall driver and reset configuration, sometimes it is just one thing unchecked that will make the diference.

Posted by rhung33 on Jan 16, 2009 Under Window DOS prompt and Unix Sun Solaris 8 Station , using LPR -p command to print txt file to cause Lexmark T644 printer '' Flushing buffer '' and...

The printer can't handle the data it received and flush it out of its buffer. Goto Menu->Settings->Postscript Settings and turn "Print PostScript Erro" on. When the same print job prints, you should get a page printed out telling you what the printer doesn't like. You may also want to try forcing the printer into Postscript mode. Your PS file probably contains a PJL to set the device to PS mode before it prints. When the printer expects PCL data and received PS data(or vise versa), you can get this behaviour
