Is there any way I can get close to a professional print quality with a HP 1500L color laser jet printer? I'm scanning a photo-quality, glossy cd cover and trying to reproduce it using glossy cd paper. But all of my prints look nowhere near the quality of a photograph. I've heard about...

I'm pretty pleased with my Canon ip4200, apart from the price of consumables. I just got my first "ink is running low" message, for the cyan cartridge, and I have purchased a replacement. I want to get all the usable ink out of the cartridge, if that won't do ant harm to the print head. My question...

Hi, Would HP black ink be compatibe for Epson stylus 480? Thanks

Is it possible to block the use of a parallel port on a HP LaserJet 2430 printer (so the only way to print is through network)? Some users refuse to use the printserver and connect their machines directly to the parallel port. :-(

Today I noticed the weirdest problem. I'm trying to print some pictures on an Epson R1800 as a networked printer. If I print directly from the computer via USB, I get a fine print. If I print the same image over the network, with all the exact same driver options, I get huge metamerism defects on...

Ive just bought a second hand Epson 9000 printer and whenever i switch it on, i get 'paper jam' or 'no paper' messages. Its loaded up with a canvas roll and nothing is jammed. Does anyone have any idea whats wrong with it or how to sort it out? Cheers

Anyone know a site that gives good info on diagnosis of HP 1100 laser printer problem? I have dug up the manual but am getting no joy with it. The engine printer test produces the intended page full of thin lines wall to wall and spaced about 1/8" apart. The lines come out of the printer not...

My parents have an HP Laserjet II printer connected to their Windows XP computer. In between turning the computer off and turning it back on (to hear my Dad tekll it), the laser printer stopped printing. When I send it a print job, it tries to print for a while and then the print queue said "Error...

Does anyone know of a way to prevent toner sticking to the facing page of laser printed documents? I want to bind a double sided laser printed document by hand but this means applying high pressure to the book and this causes some toner to stick to the facing page. It's not possbile to insert...

Is there anything I should do before putting my inkjet printer (Canon ip4200) into storage for several months? I'm concerned that the printheads will be irrevocably clogged with dried ink when I next try to use it.. Thanks, Al D

A friend of mine has a new laptop, the laptop has no parallel connections on it. The printer has no usb connections on it. We purchased a usb to parallel adapter plugged it in, and it worked fine, at first. The problem occurs when trying to print after not printing for a while, the printer...

I bought some G&G ink cartridges for my Canon printer. They leak through the print head while installed, but don't leak when out of the printer. Is this a problem of bad ink or bad cartridge design. I bought them from alotofthings.com. I sent email to their support and have received no reply. ...

Anyone recommend a good budget inkjet printer that has four ink cartridges. My old HP 693C has just about given up the ghost - I've knelt on the floor feeding pages one at time once too often as well as fighting with the head which seems to love slamming itself on the left hand side. I don't do...

No laserjet interested. For just printing just black and white, what would be a decent one? For pinting, copying, and scanning, what would be a decent one? For pinting, copying, scanning, fax what would be a decent one? For pinting, copying, scanning, fax (with LEGAL sized paper option) what...

I recently bought the HP 5440 inkjet printer for a relative. It does not come with a USB cable. Actually, I already have one, with silver connectors. The USB cables I see at retail stores have gold connectors. Will using the one I have result in diminished performance with this printer?...

I'm running a Dell desktop computer with an HP1210v printer using a cable hook-up. I recently acquired a new Toshiba laptop with built in Wi-Fi capability. Hooked it up using a Linksys WRT54G router and have been using it flawlessly (except for printing) for a couple of months. To print, I have...

Hi Will the Canon ip4200 & 5200 take compatable carts?

Hey, all. So I have a Canon Pixma iP5000, which I set up with some Hobbicolors ink last month. The results were unsatisfactory, but at the same time I haven't done any real compensation for the color differences in my software. I've seen some services online, with which you download a test...

Hi all, i`ve got a Canon Pixma MP750 multi function device, that has a failed scanner on it. The scanner moves correctly, the scanning bulb lights fine, but when scanning all that is seen is a pure while picture, no colour (or dark patches) are present. Does anyone have a service manaual for...
