    Thanks for trying to help. I could print from an email/web/excel, but not word. After quite some time I have found the solution: In the print menu is a button called page set up...and there it was...sitting on "print CD/DVD. I have never even been inside that, nor did I made the change in the first place. So basically not the "printers' fault, but something withing the computer ;-) Hope that helps others.

    Though I am unclear about what you meant by "Trying to Print a CD/DVD"

    Hello,

    Try reinstalling the Printer.

    Right-click Start and select Run.

    In the Run dialog box, type in control printers and press OK.

    Locate your printer in the Printers section, Right click it and select Remove device.

    Restart your PC.

    If you have a setup media of the Printer driver(This is usually a CD or Setup program supplied with the Printer), run the utility and let the Printer Install.

    If you do not have a setup media, try adding a printer manually using "add a printer" button in the menu bar. It should automatically detect and Install the Printer.

    After the Printer Installs, try printing a test page to see if it works as desired.

    Retry the task again.
