P-touch 2300 Won't Print Label

Replace the 8 batteries yesterday. Now next day, the labels won't print out. When the Print button is pushed, nothing happens. Can feed & cut tape, can enter label information, have turned off/on, just won't print out a file folder label today. Thank you, Denise G Flinn
