"do not ignor injustice","why?"

 
Several questions probably need to be answered.
1) what kind of printer ?
2) what kind of connection ?
3) what kind of port ?
4) what kind of computer ?
5) what operating system ?
6) has it worked before ?

And there will probably be more questions after you respond.
