I just installed my old printer, HP 610C, which works
fine, to my computer and everything in the set-up went
smooth. But, upon trying to print the test page, or
anything else for that matter, the "no paper" light on
the printer comes on and Windows XP says that the
document is canceled. Any advice?

Generally this is to do with the hardware inside the printer and is not
something that can be fixed by you or us... it's a job for a specialist. It
involves whatever sensor is inside the printer that 'sees' if paper is in
the tray or not.

Since it's such an old printer, I'd suggest replacing it would be cheaper.
