Hi
Let me do my 2cents here.
Check if your printer port is enabled in the bios and not on Auto. This turns 
off when the printer is powersaving. Your printer will still powesave, but 
will be shown as available (on) with the enabled port.
.... I could be totally out to lunch on this one you know.
Cheers
Szemir
