If the printer has been sitting unused for that long, the print heads may just need to be cleaned or unclogged. You can see how to do that here.

Looks like you-re sending postscript directly to the printer, which may not understand it, that's why it spits blank pages.
Please double-check that you're using the correct driver for the printer; the driver is responsible for translating whatever applications send (most commonly, postscript) to something the printer can understand, so the behavior you describe suggests that you picked the wrong driver.
To see which driver you're using:
- Open the "Printing" control panel
- Right-click on your printer and select "Properties".
- On the first tab (Settings), look at "Make and Model".
- If you need to change it, press the "Change" button next to the field.
- Select your printer model (or something as close to it as possible) from the list.
- Test to see if it's working correctly.
