After installing the driver, you should be able to just plug your printer into your computer and let the hardware wizard set it up (assuming your computer has Plug and Play). It should then print with no issue. If it doesn't, make sure you have the correct driver installed. I would suggest removing the installed printer and driver completely and using the installation CD that came with the printer to do a clean reinstall, but if you don't have that, just go to the manufacturer's website and search for your driver. A quick Google search can help too.

Why printer queue and printer driver are required?

A printer driver is a bit of software that instructs a printer how to work. Without such a driver, the printer may not work, or print rubbish. A print queue forms when a print job is sent to the printer that is already printing. Once the first print job has been completed, the second print job is then printed.

Connected two printers to one computer and when trying to print an error message says printer is not connected any idea what could be wrong?

Your computer will choose a default printer if you do not choose one for it. Check that the printer info was installed properly and that you can print a test page using right click, properties on the printer icon of choice. If you can manually print a test page then both printers were installed properly. If one does not print then you know who the culprit is. You will have to maunally choose or change the default printer depending on which one you want to print to. Make sure the printer driver is installed on both computers.
