It could be:
Drivers
Problem with the PC > Printer cable
Problem with the port you are using on the PC (ie. the parallel or USB port)

Drivers are upto date
Cable is fine (Quite new)
Using a USB port (through a hub)

You could have a conflict with your USB hub and another piece of hardware.

Have you tried to connect from your PC > printer as opposed to PC > hub > printer?

Tried checking the Page Setup settings, to make sure you don't have it set to A5 paper or something similar?
