    windows will not allow printer to be installed.

    Hello. Windows XP Pro SP1 will not allow me to install this hp deskjet 3520. I tried the install disk, and at the very end of the installation process, as it's going through it's various "installation phases" (ie registering new components, blah blah...) it says "rolling back action" and ends...

    windows printing snafu...incorrect margins on printouts and previews

    Hi. Whenever I go to print something, whether through the printer wizard or a separate program, the "framing" of the document or picture is off...instead of a nice 1/4" border, the "printable area" window (ie, print preview) is misplaced, so that I have maybe 1/8" at the top, and 1/2" at the...

    laserjet 5500dn problems with black density

    Hi...we usually use the 1100 for printing good deep blacks for making film positives, but larger jobs call for the 5500--I've noticed that the 5500 prints blacks with low density...in other words, not very opaque(we print to a vellum-like material that is semi-transparent...kinda foggy)...and we...

    Hi...I'm attempting to install a 256 MB strip of SDRAM in a Presario 7470...during bootup, (in a configuration with the existing 128 MB strip) the compaq screen shows a count-up of RAM, then freezes at 128...with the 256 strip alone, it counts to about 119, then the screen goes crazy with...

    shortcuts and some menu items do not work (XP pro)

    Hey gang, I'm not sure how common this problem is, but I've found numerous "solutions", none of which works. XP pro, desktop icons do not work. After clicking, all icons disappear, then reappear, but no "target" appears. Same with start menu. I smell a registry problem...

    laserjet 1100 sounds like a dying yak when printing

    Hello. When I print with the laserjet 1100, it emits a groaning, mournful sound, much like a donkey with tuberculosis, or a cow with an infected toenail (believe me, i know these sounds). It prints fine otherwise, but this awful sound it makes has got to go! Any ideas? Thank you! CR

    laserjet 4500 "calibration"?

    Hi all. The long and short of it is that when printing from tray 2, intermittent pages will print half off the page and the leftover image can be found on the back of the page when it comes out. Feeding from tray 1 (manual feed) seems to solve this problem. My guess is some kind of sensor in...

    hp 5500dn paper registration

    Hello. Has anybody had image registration problems using tray 1 on the 5500dn with 12x18 inch paper? I've gone through the calibration thing many times, and it just doesn't seem to print this particular size centered, with 1/4" border on all sides, as it should. Any ideas? Or is this...

    Hi...I'm new to illustrator, just started using v.10...my situation is, when I print, it takes a while to spool, and no matter the graphic on the page, the printer box shows the file as being somewhere around 25 Mb in size. Even if it's a little scribble...does anybody have any experience with...

    Multiple hard drives and multiple operating systems

    I'm purchasing an hp "775" pavilion in the "mini tower" configuration, and because of an issue with our current OS (XP) and its incompatability with some of our printers and scanners, we're considering installing a second hard drive and an OS that is compatible with said...

    Multiple hard drives and operating systems

    I'm going to purchase an hp pavilion with a mini-tower. Because of operating system requirements and our hardware specs, (ie a printer that will not work on our current OS, XP) we're thinking that a computer with two operating systems (which requires two hard drives?) installed may be the...

    Duplex printing from corel 11

    Does any person here have any info about duplex printing from corel draw 11 to the hp 5500 dn? Maybe I'm a moron, but the info that came with the printer is not too helpful, and I can't detect anything in Corel about duplexing, although "working with imposition layouts" looks...

    Hello all... In Corel Draw, when I remove portions of a bitmap (ie. slicing or erasing a part of the image for use in say, a web page or flyer) and then use the "bitmap editor" (ie Photo Paint or Trace) the image that comes up in the editor is the original, unsliced/erased version...
