    Question No errors But not working

    Hi.

    I have one printer on my network but I cannot print out
    When I printing out some doc's they are sending to the printer but nothing hapens and I do'nt getting any errors.

    All other computers on the network printing out and working fine, but not mine.

    I tried to reinstall drivers for the printer with no luck.

    OS = Windows XP Pro
    AV = no
    FW = no
    Printer = Brother MFC-7820N
    never know

    Maybe it's set to "Print to file" instead of the port?

    No.

    I tried all ports, for fun.

    And now settings is RAW TCP/IP
    Portname: IP_192.168.2.102
    Port number: 9100
    SNMP: public
    SNMP-index: 1

    I think you misunderstood the "port" bit. I wasn't very clear about that..

    Go to the properties of the printer on your machine. Click on the "Ports" tab. Make sure FILE: isn't ticked (that will make it print to file). Tick the correct port.

    NB Do disable SNMP! Or at the very least change the default community string (public) or anybody will be able to reconfigure your printer remotely.

    Sounds very odd that you cant print but others can.

    Latest drivers, otherwise try SD's suggestion, only thing that it can be.
