Hello randy,
This is going to take some troubleshooting.
Please try the following, and test after each change. Hopefully we can get this working for you quickly Verify that when you hit print it under print range that only the last page is selected.
Try printing a different document, this is assuming you've been only having the issue with one document. Try printing a different type of document, using a different program such as word, notepad, or even a multi-page website.
If any of these has worked for you then it has either narrowed it down to the specific document, or the program, re install the program in question.
If none of the following has helped.
go to start/run type cmd to open the command prompt type following net stop spooler net start spooler this will restart the print spooler service.
If none of the above worked, delete the printer and reinstall. If problem persists install printer on a separate computer to verify that it works correctly.
Good luck, and I hope i was helpful.

do u know how to use that button?
first of alll, decide which screen you want, press button and then open paint program and then paste it here, you will see that screen on your pain program, or you can paste that in ms word also. then you know what to do, right?

I would like to know the PC Operating System, is it XP or Vista ?

If this is XP there is a Print Spooler Reset which you can try
Uninstalling Printer s/w may not help here

On this website you will find the FIXIT - download and run the Fixit

Follow the instructions and click on RESET PRINT SPOOLER and continue till it prompts you to restart the PC

Once the PC is restarted and you see the Desktop - Disconnect the Printer USB Cable from Printer or PC and connect it back. it will install the Printer Drivers or prompt you to insert the disk to install..

It seems to be an issue with the Print Spooler Service. Either the service is stopped or not started correctly. Try stopping and restarting the printer spooler services on your computer. For tips on how to restart the Print Spooler service, use the link: http://www.ehow.com/how_2319117_restart-print-spooler-xp.html. Now Reboot your system and try deleting the print queue. It should work fine now.

Good Luck!

The problem could be because of ONE out of FOUR problems listed below. Try the steps recommended and it should fix the problem.

• Drivers Issue: Try uninstalling the printer drivers using the utility http://ftp.us.dell.com/printer/R166248.zip .Then install the drivers from the support website. Use the link: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&ServiceTag=&SystemID=PRN_INKJET_720&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid=
• UAC issue: If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, a feature called User Access Control (UAC) would block the printer communication. Disable it, and it should work. Use the link http://www.petri.co.il/disable_uac_in_windows_vista.htm for tips on how to disable UAC.
• Print Spooler Service Error: Either the service is stopped or not started correctly. Try restarting the printer spooler services on your computer. For tips on how to restart the Print Spooler service, use the link: http://www.ehow.com/how_2319117_restart-print-spooler-xp.html
• Firewall Issue: Maybe your firewall is blocking the connection to your printer. Try allowing access to all applications related to Dell or printer or communication systems under Program Permissions in your Firewall program.

Amber led simplifies a start-up-error. This could be a number of things.

For example:

Check if HDD is connected properly

Check if RAM is connected properly / also if this is damaged your pc wont start.

Check your m/board for any loose capacitors an if they are not popped at the top.

Your LCD screen is properly plugged in to the m/board and if the cables aren't damaged they are very thin and fragile.
also could be the power supply...

Goodluck
