Ok guys, I need your help on this one.

My printer prints 8 lines, honks, freezes, and then i get an error message saying it timed out. So I set the timeout limit from 15 seconds, to 60 seconds. I print again, this time it prints 3 pages and does the same thing. So, I check to make sure its still at 60 and sure enough it is. I try to resume but it prints 8 lines, honks, freezes and flashes the no paper light + the windows error again. I go through this 2 more times before setting it from 60 seconds, to 500 seconds. I print again and this time get 1 line of funny writing (a bunch of crazyass symbols) on 2 pages. It would have gone on longer but i pulled my paper out of the tray.

Any ideas?
 
Uninstall and reinstall the printer and drivers. It sounds like its something wrong with the spooler or something like that.
 
OMFG— I just tried again and it printed Page 2, in a small square in the corner! Argh! Each word is like half a centimetre long! wtf?!
