Hi Barbra,
Check all connections.
Have you installed the printer drivers?
Try un-installing and installing the printer drivers again.
Was there change in the operating system?[Say you were using windows xp and now you're using windows vista]You may need to install the driver that corresponds with your operating system.You can download the drivers from this link:www.siliconguide.com/drivers/device/583/

Hope this helps.Thanks!

Prints blank

I know this may sound silly - but on th ebottom of the new cartridges there are little plastic slips which need to be removed before using... make sure these have been removed.

If this helped you then please help me and vote kindly.

I had this same problem. I solved it by cleaning the bay where the cartridges go with some 100% Isopropyl Alcohol. Then i just replaced the cartridges with new ones and it worked fine!

Install dell old a940 printer on new acer aspire 5920 notebook with windows vista

I have the same problem but with an acer 5570Z. It used to work with the dell all-in-one, however, one day it just stopped working. It always says it cannot communicate with the printer. I've tried uninstalling it, and reinstalling it several times---no luck.
