if dialogue box is appearing, i'm thinking, this is the box.  that suppose to appear.

this box suppose to ask you to make a selection, of how many copies or pages you want to print. it also should show you a list of the printers that or connected your pc. and it will also notify you, when you print, if your ink level is low.

if you have 1 printer, then it should show the name and model of the printer.

 that is the printer, you will be printing from, and this printer should have a check mark by it as your "default printer".

once you have made your selection, from this dialogue box, their should be a small box at the bottom, saying: print, cancel. therefore if you want to go ahead and print, you click on print.
