Umm, maybe if you typed your message properly, We would be able to help you!
1)Is your driver approiate for your operating system?
2)Is your printer plugged in?(Get up and check)
3)Is the power cord plugged into it?

Which version of the operating system are you running? Are you using aparallel or USB interface? Because XP has to "fake" an interrupt for the parallel port, you should always use the USB port for printing to reduce overhead and the possibility of conflicts.
