EPSON LX-300 Under Windows 95

I'm experiencing something odd under Windows 95 with an EPSON LX-
300  dot matrix. I've selected the driver for the LX-300 and  set 
it  as default printer under control panel. I've just  taken  the 
parallel  printer lead which is usually connected to my HP  laser 
5,  and  plugged it into the LX-300. It won't print a  test  page 
though. The printer responds by just switching off its lights!

Any suggestions?
