can you even finish typing "question"? I mean really, you have a keyboard in front of you dont you? If not, go get one and actually learn to use it!

Ok, now, how is the printer connected?
USB/printer cable/LAN/wireless?
Also, check that it is plugged in and powered on. Check the cable to the printer or punch in the IP address if it is on the network.
Check that any power strips are turned on as well.
Make sure you have the actual driver for the model printer being used, and your OS.
Please post back with more details
