printer handle invalid
I have an hp 2210 all-in-one USB connection that has
worked fine for 8 months. I found the printer was no longer recognized and, after attempting to uninstall/reinstall the print driver software I get a message that the printer handel is invalid. What does this mean (these error messages never tell you how to fix them!)? I can get the printer to print from a driver that is in Windows XP but it is for a business 2200 and I have lost photo printing controls with this driver. So the printer works, but the machine tells me the handle is invalid.... any one else have this happen? |

There is a newer driver on the HP web site, also patches.

My problem occurs during the driver installation process when I am told to connect the USB device (my hp psc 2110 printer). At this poiont I am told the printer failed because the handle is invalid. How do I get a valid handle? |
