If your printer port itself didn't go bad, then a fresh install of W98 may fix the problem. answ: Cannot print from DOS, before Windows98 loads. So registers etc in Win98 not the problem. Can you print the test page from the windows printer setup routine? answ: No, always shows "printing" and printer light goes on, as if receiving command, but paper never advances. I have a spare Epson printer, hooked that up, same indications. Have you tried seaching in www.deja.com to see if anyone on Usenet has ever had the same problem? answ: No, this is a good lead.
