Printer drivers will not operate or do not remain stable when running on a Windows 2003 server. The printer may show to be offline, it may show to be online, but will not take a print job from the queue. Sometime the driver will work well for awhile then quit. This is a Ethernet networked...

Can a laser jet 4700 sleep delay be turned off, or set greater then 4 hours. Is it advisable to do so.

This isn't the case. We have sat with the user. Typically this problem has manifested itself in several ways. In this case the user did not start having a problem till they got a new computer.

I have had several users complain about the following issues with active scripting. The fix has been to replace the NIC, however that has always been in older computers. This user is having the problem with a new computer. Any ideas. I have been having trouble with my internet browser ever...

All of that was done. HP suggested rebuilding the system on the first go around. They are now sending us a new mother board for the two computers. Unfortunatly I kid of suspect that the problem is simpler then that.

HP CP3505DN printer will quit talking to Computer via USB port after computer is turned off. User must disconnect the USB port and reconnect to get it working again. Has anyone seen this problem before?

Don't believe there is nothing to hack on a printer. Especialy if it has a hard drive. But thanks for the response. Setting the port of output only is a great idea.

I know none of them match take a look at the first two. See the difference? Then look at the third. It is the true physical address. The first two are virtual, or that is what they appear to be. Not sure were they are coming from. I know that when I manipulate the port I can get things...
