I would suggest checking the cables by using the Generic print driver,, all printers 
will and can use the generic driver,,, If you don't get it to print, replace the 
cables..if it prints then the cables are ok and the driver is in error..
get a updated one and let windows reinstall it..

Then try it one more time..
