I am using XP home and a HP Deskjet 5550 - all was working ok then documents failed to print - they appear in the print queue as "printing" and then delete but nothing is printed. I cannot also open "Printing Preferences" for this printer it just flashes open for a split second.

I have reinstalled the printer umpteen times on both LPT1 and USB and tried all the various drivers available. The test print page works each time I reinstall the printer but nothing after.

No problem with the printer or installation disk and drivers - all works fine on another pc.

Any ideas out there as I have been going bonkers on this for 20 hours ?
