Boss suddenly can not print to a Lexmark Z25 (from a Dell Optiplex
745). Printing a Word .doc produces only that text on a page that is
hypertext ( ! ). Printing from Notepad does not work. In all cases the
printer spits out paper. I've tried printing from the command prompt,
and I get no copy or paper feed (assuming I am using the command
prompt properly ... it has been a long time since I used the command
prompt).

Any ideas what the problem might be?

(Problem began when Boss tried to print some cut-and-paste Power Point
stuff. It would not print, and she's not been able to print anything
since.)

Thank you people.

try:

at a cmd prompt:

net stop spooler
net start spooler

It sounds like a document get corrupted in the print queue.
You do not say whether this printer is connected directly to the PC.

you can also use regedit and remove the printer here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers

run the above commands, then reinstall the printer driver.

The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules or
took a few liberties with our female party guests. We did.

But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for
the behavior of a few sick, perverted individuals.

If you do, shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system?

And if the whole fraternity system is guilty,then isn't this
an indictment of our educational institutions in general?

I put it to you, Greg.

Isn't this an indictment of our entire American society?

Well you can do what you want to us, but we won't sit here
and listen to you badmouth the United States of America!
