I hate computers!

Trying to print out my progress report which is a apart of my final year project and is very important, its due friday but thought I would get it all out the way tonight so I can do revision.

However my stupid printer (an expensive HP Photosmart 7150) decides to break down. It has some driver issue that everytime I try and print my PC crashes in spectacular style, I have to reset the damn thing two times just to get back into windows.

I want to cry!

 

Hi AT,

I have the same printer and I often feel like hitting it with a sledge hammer. The biggest problem is switching from Photo to normal printer paper and vice versa. It takes several power off/on to get it working again. :grrr:

 

Fixed it, had to delete the drivers from the windows spool directory and redownload them, one of the DLL files must have become corrupted.

 

Look on the bright side. When you graduate, only another 40 years of that shit.

 

Then again, you could buy a Mac

 

I finally fixed it last night, but I have to be in university at 12:00 to meet others to work on a team project, that means I can't hand in my work today so will have to make a seperate trip tomorrow.

I fixed it by deleting everything in the windows/systems32/spool/hp directory, downloading the drivers again, it works fine now.

Dev - I've printed quite a few photos with it but I am often scared to print them because the photo cartirdges cost more than some printers do.

Technobar - The only problem with Macs is you can't write PC applications for them

 

Why on Earth would anyone want to???
