Why do programs install a driver running in kernel mode?

In modern operating systems, programs are isolated from other programs and from the hardware; if they want to interact, they must do so through a piece of code called the kernel. This means that, if one program goes haywire, it can't bring the whole system down. Drivers are pretty much just the parts of the kernel that directly touch the hardware.

What generates a Non-System Disk or Disk Error?

While booting, a computer looks at a number of available disks (floppies, CDs, harddisks) to see if they contain a bootable operating system. Older PCs would always boot from the harddisk, unless a floppy was present, and if that floppy didn't contain an operating system (like DOS), it would give this error message so you could remove the floppy and the computer could go on booting from the harddisk.

It may be blinking because it is on standby, if that's not the case check it for jammed paper.

You may cant to cancel all current print jobs and then turn off and turn on the printer and try again.

There is another cause of the blinking light, if you purchased a new catridge recently make sure you buy black & colour, and not just the one! even if theres colour left in the old one some printers you must replace both in order to work. Or it could be driver compatible errors. Try downloading the latest drivers from the manafacture's site. hope this helps.

What does your computer do with data?

What is the context of the question? I hate to answer a question with a question, but the question is too broad to form an intellegent answer. If I had to answer the question as-is, I would say, it typically stores it on the Hard Disk Drive, or another mass storage device, like a Flash card, USB flash drive, etc. Hard Disks keep data on them after your computer is turned off. Anything stored in memory that is not written to the hard disk is lost when you turn off you computer.
