Cant print using laserjet 4 plus on XP
Well Cari, now I'm even more impressed with XP, it still
doesn't work. Following that web page to the letter, and downloading the driver from the HP web site. This just keeps affirming my disgust with Microsoft, and their ability to upgrade software operating systems. Thanks -----Original Message----- I just upgraded my existing Windows ME to XP, downloaded all the upgrades , and bios upgrade to A11. The printer port is working just great on ME. but wont print anything on XP. I have re-installed the printer several times, even uninstalled the port and tried again. It installs just fine, but every print to it fails. I'm a bit confused. I can put the old drive back in with ME , and all works great. I connect the cable from the printer to my laptop using XP, bam.. works just fine... HELP...!!!!!! Thanks Bob . |

Since the BIOS is A11, is this a Dell? Configure the LPT BIOS to AT or
Bidirectional for this older device. ECP might work but if that is the current setting change to one of the other. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;[ln];kbhowto This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
