Version: 2004
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger)
Processor: Power PC

Anytime I try and print anything, be it a pdf, word doc, excel doc, anything I get the "spinning wheel of death"

Am i doing something wrong? HELP?

If it happens regardless of file or program it must be an OS and/or printer
driver issue - they're what handle print services anyway. Try repairing disk
permissions first & restart your Mac. If that doesn't put things right
reinstall your printer software - you might want to check the mfr's web site
to see if there is a new driver available.

I only get spinning wheel of death when trying to print word document. HELP

Make sure your version of Office & OS X are fully updated, make sure you
have the latest driver for your printer, Repair Disk Permissions & restart
your Mac. If that doesn't help we'll need to know more about your OS
version, Office version & any other details you can provide, such as;

One particular file or any file?
Problems printing from other programs?
Can you print to PDF?
