This is more an annoyance than anything else ... but ... i run 2 printers off a standalone pc running WinXP ... an HP Laserjet on the lpt1 port and an Epson inkjet on a usb port. Sometimes while running a big job ... say 10 pages or more ... the print will go fuzzy ... at first i thought it was a cartridge problem ... but both printers do it ... and pretty randomly .... its starting to bug the hell outta me ... i've reloaded the printer drivers umteen times and reinstalled XP too, but no improvement ...has anybody else had this happen? and ideas on what to do???

thanks

thats really wierd, i really don't see how it could be anything to do with drivers, but then thats quike a coienceadence if it isn't.

do you have another computer you could hooke them up to and trying printing 10 pages or so too if it has the same problem. if it does then its probly just something wrong with the printer....

....or something LOL

I could swap printers with my daughter for a while and see .... but i saw it mentioned elsewhere when printing from Office2000 or OfficeXP that if you use the nondefault printer it can lead to page errors sometimes so i'm playing around with that ... also changing my printspooler setting to see if that does anything - but, wouldn't you know it - haven't had to print anything over about 5 pages this week, lol
