Shared printer problem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

i imagine you have checked print permissions on the printer? A nozzle check
is not printing. and accessing files and seeing the printer are also not
printing permissions. Just a thought. The error message I am sure would help
the people here help you also.

These are the error messages I get:

Word – Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer setup.
Try one of the following 1) Check the printer by printing a test page from
Windows 2) Make sure the printer is turned on and online 3) Reinstall the
printer driver

Excel – Your file could not be printed due to an error on \\Study\Canons520
on Ne02. There are several possible reasons 1) There might not be enough
memory available. Try closing files and programs you are not using 2) If you
use a network for printing there may be a problem with the network connection
or the printer driver 3) There may be loose cables or a bad connection
between your computer nad printer

Internet Explorer – An error has occurred on the script on this page Line
1774, Char 1, Error Unspecified, Code 0, URL
res//C\Windows\system32\shdocl.dll/preview.dlg
