   HELP NEEDED - Printer Problems   
   18 Nov 08 06:11:27   
   
   From: azscorp@nowhere.com   
      
   I have an HP 7590 Multimedia PC. With Intel Dual Processor, 2GB RAM   
   Windows Media Center Edition w/SP3 + latest updates.   
   Also an HP 722C parallel port printer   
   I can no longer print to that printer. It will print a test page just fine but   
   nothing else.   
   I've un-installed the printer 4 times and even un-installed the port,   
   rebooted, the system  finds the printer and or port, installs the drivers and   
   still nothing. It goes through all  the motions of printing but it's a blank   
   page.   
   I have a home wired network and all the other computers act the same to that   
   printer, test  pages print fine but nothing else. I've tried printing from   
   Notepad a txt file and still no  print.   
   the fact that it will print the test pages kinda tells me that the printer,   
   cable, port are  ok.   
   It used to work just fine but has been doing this for a week or more.   
   I ran anti-virus, spyware and regclean and nothing found.   
   I don't know what else to do, can someone please help?   
   Thanks
