DON'T SHOUT! Restart your computer. Talk to your network administrator.

So, this happens on more than just PowerPoint presentations? If that's the
case, then why are you posting in the PowerPoint group?

If you open Notepad, type "the quick red fox," and try to print that, what
happens?

My guess would be that you're working on a laptop and your printer drivers
are installed on a network server or something. (I assume that's what you're
talking about when you say "reconnected to the net," anyway.) So install
them on your laptop instead and see if that helps. But if this isn't a
PowerPoint question, then you're really in the wrong group.

When you post in the other group, you may want to give them some basic
details like what version of Windows, what type of printer, how your
computer is connected to the printer (or if it's on a network or attached to
a hub or what). I realize you're frustrated, but without actual
*information* from you, the chances of someone being able to diagnose this
are slim.
 
In addition to the other suggestions, sometimes the simplest thing is to restart
Windows then delete and reinstall the printer driver.
