microsoft excell printing

i bring up an excell file and try to print. i go throught the printing
process, click on file, click on print, the print square appears and i click
on print. it seems to be sinding a message to the printer but when i go to
printers and faxes from the sart menu there is nothing in the print que. the
system will not print the file. word documents it will print but excell
documents it will not print today. any suggestions?

In Excel use the File Print command, and ensure you are sending the
spreadsheet to the correct printer and that you do not have Print to File
selected.

I did use the File Print command. i turned off my printer and rebooted my
computer and when I came back up and restarted everything i could print out
files in excell. all files except this one file. can you set excell files
so that they can not be printed?

Not usually... did you try copying and pasting the data into a new Excel
file?
