You know that feeling? You hit print, the printer lights up to indicate it's ready to go, but your precious document just doesn't ever appear. Your printer might be saying it's ready, but there's something hampering the output. First, verify you actually selected the appropriate printer and that your document is adequately formatted. Then, examine your paper tray: is it filled correctly? Is there any jammed paper? Sometimes a simple fix can solve the issue. If not, maybe it's time to inspect your printer's settings or even restart both your computer and printer.
