Blink, Blink, Blink...

I've been having printer problems for the last few weeks.


The Print Problem Solver Analyzer tells me I have a document in queue, 
YES I KNOW THAT! 
Three weeks ago I tried to print a recipe for Pioneer Woman's Apple Dumplings and that's when the whole thing fell apart.

I should have called a repairman for help, but I thought I'd try to fix it myself.

I'm not computer savy with technical problems, but I know enough to get me into trouble. I began to search in the Control Panel for fixes. 

I clicked on all of the help I could find that might apply.

When this message came up I nearly lost it,
Hey there is a printer connected and it's not working!


I think this is the real problem!

After 3 weeks I am going to just go and buy a new printer...
I can't take it anymore!

  3. Computer hardware is my downfall. Give me software and for the most part I can figure it out. My husband is the one in charge of hardware issues. Good luck!

    And by the way, those apple dumplings are good enough that if I couldn't print the recipe I'd write it out in long hand.

  4. I think we all have a love/hate relationship with our printers, not to mention computers. I rely heavily upon my daughter to solve those glitches. If she can't solve the problem, It is time to panic.
    Mmm... Apple Dumplings! I would love the recipe:-) I will try to google up the recipe.

  7. Oh, just like I attempted to "fix" the sound on the computer I'm typing on--and now have no sound at all and can't figure how to get it back. I'm a whiz at repairs.
