Hi, everyone... I have a flatbed printer which is essentially Epson Stylus Photo 1290. I work little with it, and then my head was broken. For over 40 days I didn't do anything with that flatbed printer. After I had replaced head of printer and flat cable from printer head to mainboard, my...

Are these two the same printers except the 4600 being the next year's model of the 4500? Thanks

My current setup includes a Linux (Debian Lenny) OS and an HP Deskjet D1360 printer. Everything works perfectly!! The Operation System operates and the printer prints. But hp-toolbox claims that "No Installed HP Devices Found". It is unclear to me whether this is an hp-toolbox problem or a...

lately ink cartridges of my HP DeskJet 710 c are empty more and surprisingly frequently than before - though I don't print more. is it possible that there's a problem with the printer or may I have bought bad refilled cartridges? Regards, Peter

Are there any network printers that don't need drivers? The reason for asking is a network that has 3 operaitng systems of varoius levels, which gets into driver heck. I would think high-end network printers would have web interfaces for admin. & maint., and standard data formats (post...

Epson Stylus Photo R220; XP Home SP3 Anyone any idea why the Epson status monitor icon (the printer icon) in the taskbar tray regularly--indeed mostly--fails to appear after a warm or cold reboot? I can get it to appear by right-clicking on the R220's icon in the 'Printers and faxes' "folder",...

Any one else having problems with HP printers working on the new Windows 7 OS? I had two failures after loading the newest software for my Photosmart C7280 after loading the latest updates from Microsoft. Reloading the software for the printer was a real bear, but now it seems to be stable. I am...

Hi, I am looking for a mini printer like label printer with Centronics interface. This needs to work without needing a driver. All I am intrerested to print Alphanumeric characters only. Note: I will be connecting this printer with my Nanospec aft tool. Thanks for your help! Charlie

I have tried various settings as suggested elsewhere but it hasn't cured a recent problem, whereby no matter how many print copies I request, the printer only generates one. Any suggestions valued.

I've been using a fairly old but reliable HP Deskjet 980cxi to print greeting cards and business cards, using thick material (up to 300 gsm.) The rollers which feed the media have now worn away and I've had problems with cards slipping and not feeding through. It doesn't look as though I can...

Hello I have a Canon MP630 printer about 6 months old. Have always used genuine Canon ink cartidges to date cos of warning of voiding the warranty. However the cost difference to the generic ones is considerable. What do you think of generic Canon ink cartidges? Could they shorten the life of...

I've been using an HP PhotoSmart P1100 for the past 10 years. I don't print a lot, a set of cartridges will last me a year. Just put in a new pair of cartridges and inspected the area where the heads park. The area was filled to the top with dried ink! Here's a picture of the area filled with...

We have a networked printer here at work that is a Toshiba e-Studio 3500C. It is a great office system for printing, copying, faxing and scanning.... at least when we're on XP x32. We are in process of upgrading to XP Pro x64 and the workstations we have are having "issues" with the 3500C. ...

I was browsing Staples yesterday and a woman approached me and warned me not to consider any Brother laser printers, cause not only one has to replace a color toner when it runs out, but something about a drum. She said once the drum goes, it gets pretty expensive to replace...Does anyone know the...

I have a Brady Label Printer 2461. It's only printing half of my labels.. well one side of the labels. there is a nob on the bracket that holds the ribbon up against the labels. If I tighten the nob all the way down. the labels look great on the right side.. but hardly visible on the left side....

The Source, City Centre Mall, New Westminster BC, last week, tried to refuse to refund $37.00 for an Original Brother Inkjet Cartridge, MFC 465CN, which produced various error messages on insertion like 'ink empty' & 'No Black Cartridge'. It never printed despite following the printer cleaning...

I have an HP 6980 that uses cartridges 96, black, and 97, tri-color. In the past I have successfully refilled these quit a few times. Some weeks ago I bought a new 96 and 97 from a local store and have been using them with no problems. Yesterday, the tri-color one (97) was 90 percent empty so I...

Hi all, I'm looking for an application I once had that ran a minimal print job every time the system was booted. By minimal I mean something like a very short test pattern, merley a single line. This was to prevent inkjet heads from drying should you print VERY infrequently.

Have a Brother DCP-585CW printer at work and I'll be darned if I can figure out how to print a page of business cards. I see nothing in the page or print set up that will allow me to do that, and a link to something on the web called the "Creative Center" which has a "business solutions" page has...

A trivial problem but ..... I have an Epson R265. I prefer to switch on print preview (to stop me printing 100s of pages when I only want 1 !!!). Up to recently, if I ticked the print preview in the properties box it remembered became default for all subsequent printings. Now, though, it...
