Need help for HP printer
Hi, I am looking at buying a HP Colour Lasterjet printer.. I have XP and a few other HP products. New HP 2600n or the 2550L printer and also a used 4550 which was much more expensive but now about the same price as the new ones. I want to print good quality 2 sided CD covers with photos etc., but on as cheaper paper as I can but still want it to look nice. The glossy paper is very costly I am told. I will be doing about 1000 2 sides a month max. Also the cost of the toner concerns me. I get the same warranty on all 3. Does anyone have any advise, suggestions? Thanks Rock

I wouldn't go with the used one. First, used color laser printers are often sold just before their main maintenance cycle which... well, it's costly... Second, the 4550 is a slow device. And I mean slow. As a second note BTW: make perfectly sure a color laser printer is what you want and do the math. Check prices for supplies, accessories and maintenance kits and then think twice before buying one. Color laser printers appear to be mainstream now but I bet, they still are not. -- mit freundlichen Gr��en/with kind regards Christian D�rrhauer, Institute of Geography, FU Berlin You carry the fate of us all little one. - Boromir

HELP need HP 510n BIOS
Hello, I have an HP 510n that has the wrong bios flashed and the machine will not start as a result. I've talked with HPs customer support and they tell me that there is no bios available for this machine. This particular model has the Trigem Lomita motherboard, not the Asus board that some other 510n's have. HP has a bios for that model at their site. Trigem doesn't answer emails and Phoenix can't help either. If anyone knows where I can find a BIOS for this machine or would be willing to post one for it I'd greatly appreciate the help. I've scoured the web looking for one with no luck. Thanks, TC Cut your losses. Replace the board, either with an identical one or a similar one...

my HP printer needs help/advice
My HP MF 3330 LaserJet worked resonably perfectly on my network when attached to the AirPort with an ethernet printer server for 2+ years. Now suddenly it stopped working.

I set up my Mac to share the printer and it works too. SUMMARY. printer server via ethernet NO, USB into AirPort NO, but direct attachment to the Mac is OK. QUESTION. What could be the problem?

Help needed with HP LaserJet 1018 printer
I'm struggling to get a new HP LaserJet 1018 printer to work with an Iyonix (RO 5.13). Two questions - a simple one, and a more complex one: 1. What is the most appropriate printer driver to use? I understand that there is little difference between the main HP printer definition files. I tried many different PDFs for HP (in !Printers 1.72, as well as LJ1100 which I found in another version of !Printers), but they all give the same (null) result, which leads to what I think is the main problem... 2.

Mac OS 9.2.2, Beige G3 desktop HP Deskwriter 680c -------------------- The printer has started some very loud 'clackety-clack' noises. It sounds as if the ink cartridge carriage is catching on something as it moves left and right but as I look and listen, it sounds more like something is not meshing - like gear teeth and not meshing right.

AWB www.cadmasteradam.blogspot.com adam.bouzane@ gee male dot com Hello Adam, There is alwas a way, BUT LPT port has 5V (TTL signals) -serial port has 12V signals although voltage is not mandatory (it's rather electrical current) so...you would have to write a nasty piece of driver (possible) and a little interface using some of MAX232 chip variations to adapt signals since this two ports are electrically incompatible and this is first time i hear about somone needing to emulate COM on LPT -you should have no hopes to find such driver and interface Alternative solutions for you may be: ========================= 1. buy a USB to serial adapter 2. If you use your COM port to connect to fax/modem, and if you have FAX service installed -your COM port may be apearing IN USE to Windows XP,it is in did used if y...

HP 960 C Deskjet printer
A puzzling issue - I have paviliion running win xp sp2 (about 4 years old) and have a minor glitch when I print a document from powerpoint 2003. I was able to find a newer driver (from late 2001) and tried to install it. But the printer driver assistant "wants to close" and send error message to microsoft. I have tried several times to do this update but it fails. I tried uninstalling the software from add/remove programs but nothing happens when I try to do that. HP support had me modify the registry and remove a subfolder relating to this printer, but that also did not help and i used system restore to revert. I also tried using the installation cd to remove. it did its routine but did not remove anything and the printer still works. I cannot help but wonder if the driver install program is defective. Since i can work around the glitch I am ready to give up - but thought I would ask about this alan Where did the newer driver come from, HP or Micro$oft? If the latter, I would strenuously avoid installing hardware driver updates from the Microsoft update web site. There are too many buggy hardware drivers there, and quality control seems to not exist. I have installed hardware updates from there and had graphics go south and network adapters stop working. What is the glitch printing a PowerPoint document? Have you tried a lower resolution? Sometimes the print files generated by Microsoft Office products are extremely bloated and cause pr...

AWB www.cadmasteradam.blogspot.com adam.bouzane@ gee male dot com Hello Adam, There is alwas a way, BUT LPT port has 5V (TTL signals) -serial port has 12V signals although voltage is not mandatory (it's rather electrical current) so...you would have to write a nasty piece of driver (possible) and a little interface using some of MAX232 chip variations to adapt signals since this two ports are electrically incompatible and this is first time i hear about somone needing to emulate COM on LPT -you should have no hopes to find such driver and interface Alternative solutions for you may be: ========================= 1. buy a USB to serial adapter 2. If you use your COM port to connect to fax/modem, and if you have FAX service installed -your COM port may be apearing IN USE to Windows XP,it is in did used if y...
I need help with my HP PSC 950 printer re recycled cartridges
My printer does not work. The error message Insert color cartridge keeps coming on. I used a recycled black cartridge purchased from Office Depot. I read somewhere that may be the reason. Can someone help me? I am desperately in need of my printer. Thanks Hi, jp2003 <joprabhu2003@yahoo.com> wrote: #My printer does not work. The error message Insert color cartridge #keeps coming on. I used a recycled black cartridge purchased from #Office Depot. I read somewhere that may be the reason. HP's efforts to keep you from using recycled cartridges are working well. I guess it's an anti-environment thing. Take it back to Office Depot for a refund or replacement.

Help needed with Techjet, Canon, HP, Heidi Wide-Format-Printer, Plotter
Please help me with the following problems. I recently received a TechJet 5336 PS w/ postscript option. I am making the Techjet available to our local Resident/Community Association to print posters 11x17 - 36x48 which are placed at various locations in the community, in relation to various events. I've been experimenting with various drivers and found that the Canon W3050 - W9000, HP GL/2, HP 750C/PS all work with to some degree with the Techjet 5336 under win2000 and/or Linux and/or OSX.

Does anyone know of other compatible Postscript/CAD/Canon/Epson/Techjet/HP/Other drivers that work with the Techjet 5336 PS that might work with the printer, under linux, win2k, or winxp. Does anyone know whether or not other manufacturers used a compatible print-engine? Can anyone tell me the difference between the Techjet 5336, 5436, 5636 print engines? Does anyone know where I can find line-at-a-time drivers that might work with the Techject 5336? Is there a way to con vine one of the previously mentioned page-at-a-time drivers to print to the Techjet 5336 one line-at-a-time?

Need help installing HP 960cxi printer on Win XP pro, PIII Dell machine
Downloaded new drivers for this parallel port printer and installed it. However every single time I boot I get a message indicating new hardware was found--this printer. It then asks for me to put in a CD to find certain files. I point the prompts to where the dll's are and it goes on its merry way. Then upon reboot same thing happens indicating - detected new hardware for this same HP printer. I tried installing in safe mode and still no luck.. Ideas?? Thanks Patty ...
HP printer help
anyone familiar w/ the hp 2575? i'm thinking about buying it. only bad thing i see is that it has the two tanks, not the individual ones.

HP 960 C Deskjet printer
A puzzling issue - I have paviliion running win xp sp2 (about 4 years old) and have a minor glitch when I print a document from powerpoint 2003. I was able to find a newer driver (from late 2001) and tried to install it. But the printer driver assistant "wants to close" and send error message to microsoft. I have tried several times to do this update but it fails. I tried uninstalling the software from add/remove programs but nothing happens when I try to do that. HP support had me modify the registry and remove a subfolder relating to this printer, but that also did not help and i used system restore to revert. I also tried using the installation cd to remove. it did its routine but did not remove anything and the printer still works. I cannot help but wonder if the driver install program is defective. Since i can work around the glitch I am ready to give up - but thought I would ask about this alan Where did the newer driver come from, HP or Micro$oft? If the latter, I would strenuously avoid installing hardware driver updates from the Microsoft update web site. There are too many buggy hardware drivers there, and quality control seems to not exist. I have installed hardware updates from there and had graphics go south and network adapters stop working. What is the glitch printing a PowerPoint document? Have you tried a lower resolution? Sometimes the print files generated by Microsoft Office products are extremely bloated and cause pr...
