Just a note.      ^ It'll do this for several reasons.^

Especially if the printer cable has fallen out of the connector.

Rule #2:  Always check the cables first.  Then check them again while
          you're working on the problem.

I checked the cables before I started to work on it, but not while I
was working on it.  :-)
Thanx for all the help from everybody, though...
