Is this the right place to discuss a problem printing with a HP printer in Windows XP Home?
If not, what is the right place?
Thanks.
....if your Windows XP Home is hosted on a VMware product
Shoot your question you never know here!! You get answers here sometimes even before you blink
My problem started several weeks ago when I traded my old Gateway for an iMac 20.
I had been using an old HP 7960 for several years on the Gateway (with XP Home) with absolutely no problems. I loaded on the iMac the driver (I found on the HP website) for that printer. Not only I lost nearly all control on the printer, but it printed very, very slowly (like a minute per line!).
As I also have an old HP scanner for which no Mac OS is available, I decided to try Fusion with XP. Both Fusion and XP loaded without any problems.
I downloaded from the HP website the XP driver and everything worked OK until this morning. The printer suddenly stopped printing!
I hooked it up to a PC and it works fine! I deleted the XP driver and reloaded it. Same problem. I ran the HP diagnostics on the printer and everything seems to be fine.
This is driving me nuts! What's going on?
P.S.: On the other hand, the scanner works great!
