Is it USB or networked? I'd look for a different driver for
it.

So this happens with ALL print jobs from that system with
that OS? I am assuming you have tried something basic like
plain text from Notepad. Is there a taskbar tray icon or
some other printer status panel (software on the PC) that
shows whether it thinks printer is ready to print?

What is the scenario when it does print? Had you retried it
in this scenario _after_ having printing fail and it then
worked, ruling out a printer failure after that point in
time? If it's USB, you aren't using one of those dodgy
clear USB cables with the LEDs built in are you? I've had a
few printers that won't work with (some of) those.

Had this printer worked on this system previously? Had this
PC used another printer successfully with this (or another)
OS, and had you made any OS changes (like installing SP2)?
