From: Arthur Entlich on 15 Mar 2010 01:25 Does the garbage only occur with a specific file, or through only the ..pdf interpreter (Abbe reader, or whatever?) If so, it may indicate a corrupt file or a corrupt interpreter, or a wrong reader or file version. Try to re-download the .pdf file if possible, try another .pdf and see if the same thing happens. If that still is the case, try installing a new interpreter/reader to print from, or try another program that prints ..pdf files.

From: Arthur Entlich on 15 Mar 2010 11:18 If this is only occurring with the same .pdf file, it is likely the file is corrupt. If it is occurring with all .pdf files and none other, it may be the printer driver has become corrupt, load the latest version for your OS. If it occurs regardless of program and file, try a printer reset via front panel or software driver accessed. Then try a new or reloaded printer driver. There could be a bad cable or connection, try disconnecting and reconnecting, if that doesn't work try substituting another cable. If the printer offers several connection options, like Parallel and USB, try the other one than you normally use.

From: Trevor on 15 Mar 2010 17:28 I have now re-installed the driver from the HP website. Now when I print nothing happens, it sits in the print queue with a blank in the status column.
