UPS printer, LP2844 by Zebra, that will not print

Hi lexpik,

Was it working fine before? Do you get any specific error messages when you try to print?

I would suggest you to try the following steps:

Step 1: Firstly, restart the computer and check the print queue.

After the computer restarts, double-click the printer icon in the lower right corner (the notification area) of the computer. The print queue opens.

If the print jobs remain in the print queue, continue to the next step

Step 2:  Run the Fixit available in the link below:

Step 3: Make sure the printer is not paused or offline.

1.    On the print queue menu bar, click Printer, and then look for the Pause Printing and Use Printer Offline items in the menu.

2.    Make sure that there is no check mark next to either item. If a check mark displays next to either item, click to clear it.

Step 4: Run the fixit available in the link below to restart the Print Spooler service.

You may try to add the printer locally and test
