Yeah it's on, lol. It's plugged in too. It says this first, THEN gives me the error message: "Before you can perform printer-related tasks, you must first install a printer. Would you like to install a printer?" Then I click yes and it gives me that error.
Okay, you got the printers drivers (usually on a CD that comes with it). Even then you might have to install manually, what OS are you using?

Windows XP, and I don't have the driver. I thought Windows would just use that 'new hardware wizard' and install it for me...but yeah...that didn't happen.

Go down the list until you see "Print Spooler" -- if the status isn't 'started', try starting it.
There's always someone that beats you to it :P

DUDE. You fucking rule! That worked! I changed the startup type to automatic, somehow I had it on none. The clicked start and what do you know? Sure enough it works. Kick ass, and thanks!
