1. Have you made sure that all connections work to the said printer? Maybe you have a bad cord connecting the printer to the computer? 2. Make sure all drivers are updated and that your printer is compatible with your brand of computer.

This symptom is typical of a computer using an incorrect or damaged software driver. Initiate a test print directly from the printer while disconnected from PC. Usually by holding the power button down a few extra seconds as you turn it on. If the test page is good by this method I suggest you remove all printers listed in the windows control panel. Then download the most resent software drivers for your printer from the manufacture and install them as instructed by the manufacture before reconnecting the printer to the PC.

Cause they are sick of you
Go on the maker's website and download the printer driver for your make and model. A missing or corrupted printer driver will cause the printing of rubbish (squiggles).
Inertia.
Your printer hates you. Cause you cheated on it with your laptop.
Printer toner can be replaced at home, but you should be sure that you know how to do it before you try. Otherwise, you could break your printer or cause a huge mess.
