Seems to me, someone should be able to write a printer driver driver, that will take the output from XP, 7, 8, or 10 and convert it to what the output from win98 or XP would look like, to be used as input for old printers. So that old printers -- and other accessories -- could be used with new...

I purchased a Canon MP780 copier/scanner/fax new from Amazon. Once I set up the machine, doublechecking that I had removed all the tape, and installed the 5 ink cartridges, I still get the message "Put in cartridge." I have done the following in an attempt to remedy the situation: -removed and...

Looking for a reliable printer. No bells and whistles. Pls state the model number too. Anyone? Thanks Steve

Does anyone know what the HP OfficeJet D145 message means "Color ink out. Replace color ink cartridge." The ink level is fine (always was) and I've turned off the ink level checking for the color ink long ago (by pressing the double-arrow 456 key sequence). Since this HP message isn't about the...

I just ran across another good site that rates printers, paper and ink. This is the result of their tests. It seems that all of the professional sources all say the same thing. Only in this ng do you get a song and a dance. Probably cause the relabelers post their crap here to sell their...

First of all, apologies to all those who accuse me of "feeding the troll". I make two defenses. To whit: 1. Mease is a defender of quality and he backs up his assertions with verifiable and reproduceable findings. If you don't like his opinions, you are free to do your own research. 2. Mease is...

Jeepers no one replied yet...? Well first of all fuzzy edges on text, thats called feathering varies with printer models, could also be due to ink and paper type...do you use inkjet paper which is coated..? Looks like printing on blotting paper but not as bad eh..! Epson cartridges has a clear...

I am about to start looking for a new inkjet printer and would appreciate some help. These are some parameters that I have identified for this general purpose printer: 1. Easily refillable cartridges 2. If cartridge chipped, easily reset 3. Individual colour cartridges 4. Printing on CDs would be...

Does Epson no longer make the Water Color paper? I'm looking for something with more texture than the Enhanced Matte paper to print out some of my LF images. Any suggestions? Thanks, Mark

Wow, big difference! You've heard the saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words". I took in my memory card and printed out a picture on both the HP and Canon. I also had the print of the picture I got from the photo lab. I used the same picture for both. The only paper they had in the...

Since abandoning Epsons for my school, due to bad experiences learned from purchasing their C84 machines and having them permanently clog on us when not being used over the summer (Yes, I've read Art's pamphlet, and used his information successfully on many printers, but for this model,...

Hi, Just thought you'd like to know that my Epson R800 became well and truly clogged after only 30 days use. The problems coincided with a change to Jettec inks though of course these inks may not have caused the problems as Jettec guard their reputation for high quality. Talking of which, Jettec...

I want to buy a printer, primarily to make photos from my digital camera. I am looking for opinions on what to buy. All informed views will be appreciated.

I get a brief flashing message box that the ink is out when I go to print. It goes through the whole thing and then gives me a message that the printing has stopped. I'm out of 2 colors and low on a third but I'm OK on the black. I just want to print in black now, and I set the print specs to black...

If anyone is interested in some actual, independent, measurements of photo printer ink consumption, I've published some on the DPNow printer discussion forum he http://dpnow.com/bb/printer.pl Ian Digital Photography Now http://dpnow.com

Under the Maintenance tab in the printer's properties box, I set the printer to Auto On and Auto Off (after 5 minutes). After selecting the settings, my options are Send or Cancel. Send? Well I know I don't want to cancel so I chose send. The next box asks, "Write settings to printer?" ...

I have been framing and selling some digital prints, up to a size of about 15 inches x 10 inches. To date, I have used a commercial photoprinter company to do the printing for me. This is because I have been told that the paper used on expensive commercial photo printing machines has far...
