Can you tell more about the printer:
- connection (parallel port, USB, networked on another PC, networked via router or switch, wired/wireless)
- what make/model
- where did the driver come from

Hi,
I work in a company of 10 - 20 ppl. I need to configure a printer for one computer which runs Windows XP.
I have tried everything possible, but it still does not work. When I click on print, the sound of the printer starting can be heard, but finally nothing prints.
These are the steps I have taken :
1) Click Start and select Printers and Faxes.
2) Under Printer Tasks, click Add a Printer. Click Next.
3) Select the Local Printer attached to this computer radio button.
4) Uncheck the Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play printer check box.
5) Click Next.
6) Select the Create New Port radio button.
7) From the Type of port: drop down list choose Standard TCP/IP Port. Click Next.Click Next.
Note: You will now be prompted for 2 items: the Printer Name or IP Address and the Port Name. The 1st item is the Static IP address that has been assigned to the device. The 2nd item may be edited by you or left alone.
In the Printer Name or IP Address box, enter the IP Address of the device.
9) In the Port Name box, you may leave the default or edit. Ex: Port names can't have spaces. They should be short but descriptive.
10) Click Next. Click Finish.
11) If Step 10 completed successfully, you are now ready to install the driver.
12) Choose your driver. Click Next.
Note: If you are prompted to replace or keep existing driver, click on Keep Existing Driver. Click Next.
13) Edit the Printer Name if needed.
14) If you want this to be the default printer, click Yes. If not, click No. Then click Next.
15) Select the Do not share this printer radio button. Click Next.
16) Leave the Print a test page (recommended) button checked. Click Finish.
Please help me resolve this issue.
