1130n Laser Printer always in "pause" mode
My Dell 1130n Laser Printer is connected to my network via a Netgear router. My primary machine is a Studio XPS 8000 running Win 7 64-bit. When I choose to print anything, nothing happens. So, I go to control panel ==> view devices and printers ==> and double click the icon for the 1130n, I see that the printer is currently in "paused" mode. I click to uncheck pause mode and the printer prints the page. It immediately goes back to "paused" mode, and if I choose to print something else, I must again uncheck pause mode to execute the print job. I have searched and cannot find any solution to this. Hope someone here has encountered this before and has a solution. Thanks, in advance.

The first thing I would try is opening the printer properties and going to the ports tab. Are you using a standard TCP IP port? If so then hit configure port and make sure SNMP is turned off. Something on your network might be giving a false signal to your computer that the printer has paused. If that does nothing then I would try deleting that specific print queue and re-adding it.
