Anyone come across this error message on the Photosmart 5460? Ink level check shows that the software cant read the photo black or yellow cartridges but they are full.

I just bought a new computer and at some point plan to upgrade it to the about-to-arrive Windows Vista. It appeaars that my present Lexmark Z65 won't have a Vista driver written for it so I'm shopping for a printer I can get a great deal on with the computer purchase. What seems to be on offer is...

I keep getting this error every time I print. It tells me there is paper stuck in the rear section of the printer.. I check, but nothing is there.. To print I close the front compartment then click ok after first opening and closing the drawer where the paper is in the front (using the front...

It suggests I visit a service centre as "parts are approaching the end of their useful life." However, it appears to be printing as well as the day I bought it, ie, very well. I presume this is generated by an internal (non-visible) sheet counter routine. Apart from spending the price of a...

I recently purchased a Brother HL-5250DN printer. I use Mac OS 10.2.8. The printer had Postscript Emulation on the box. We're a weekly newspaper and I like to output 65 line screen halftones. Well, it doesn't seem possible to set the line screen on this "Postscript" printer. I would suggest...

So I tried this and the result when you click...
