Guess I'll Be Bothering SOL Some More

Very, VERY slowly, I am getting used to the new computer. I'm waiting until I am more proficient just typing on it before I bother son-in-law with too many questions. (I hit double letters about six times in that first sentence alone. Keyboard is so much larger than I'm used to.)


But now I've moved the printer over by the chair, so I can use them together. I had to send an SOS to SOL right away. I also asked oldest daughter, who seems to be really up on such things, but so far she hasn't been able to help either. Yes, I have cleared everything and set my printer as default, and all that good stuff. But it still spits out blank paper. I went to "trouble shooting" too. That explanation is long and complicated, and way beyond my limits of understanding.


It seems that Windows 7 is very different than any earlier version. I have yet to be able to print a photo, or even a letter. I know there must be an easy way to do it, but it has evaded me so far. SOL told me we could share a Skype call, so he could see what I was doing, and give me help that way, so I'm sure that sooner or later all will be well.

OK. It seems he neglected to tell me, I can't install my printer with just the instructions in the computer. I need to do it differently for Windows 7. I should have guessed. Only I can't understand their instructions either.
