Why won’t my document print?

You just put the finishing touches on an 8 page paper, which you painstakingly gathered information for, and now comes the moment for which you have been waiting. You go to the File tab on Microsoft Word and you go down to the print option. With a smile across your face, you click print. You take out your Ram Card and go to the print station. You take hold of the mouse to select your document on the screen, only to see that it is not there. So, you return to your computer and hit print again and sprint back to the print station. Wait a minute. It is still not there. What is going on? You go back to the computer for a third time. You click print, and when you get to the print station, there is still no document. You have forgotten to ask yourself a question that you must always ask yourself when printing in the library; “Is my computer aligned to the right printer?”
