Uninstall the software for your printer. Go into add/remove programs and remove the programs for the printer that are listed in there.

After that reconnect the printer and reinstall the software. Make sure it goes thru properly with no errors. Then also make sure that this printer is setup as the default. Go into the control panel and into the printers icon and make sure this printer is setup as the default, right click on the printer and choose "set as default".

Once you do all of this, go ahead and try to print a test page. If it doesn't print it then you know at that point the printer itself is bad cause the drivers are installed properly.

There is no ink on the paper after the printer has copyed. my printer is a dell a940 all-in-one. i have tried cleaning with acohol.
Inkjet printers need to be used frequently to prevent inkdrying out in the print head nozzles.
If the print head cleaning maintenance routine does not clear the blockages,then print head needs replacing, but it may be expensive.
It may be more cost effective to buy a later model and better printer thanreplace the print head.

Install dell old a940 printer on new acer aspire 5920 notebook with windows vista
I have the same problem but with an acer 5570Z. It used to work with the dell all-in-one, however, one day it just stopped working. It always says it cannot communicate with the printer. I've tried uninstalling it, and reinstalling it several times---no luck.
