Default Damn Printer

So my printer has been down for a while, out of black ink...I didn't need to print anything so I lagged. Yesterday I bought an ink cartridge, and now the computer doesn't recognize the printer anymore. I tried downloading and installing a new driver, but the printer couldn't be located for install. :angry:

I just spent $30 on a new print cartridge, and I'm probably just gonna end up having to buy a new printer :angry::madfawk:

Make sure the printer cable isn't loose.
I don't know anything about your configuration though. Check for resource conflicts. :dunno:

Did you toggle the OH-EN / OH-EF-EF manipulator switch on the back of the printer?

Cable is secure, running Win 2k Pro, when I try to reinstall the printer, the computer can't see it as connected to the USB port. I'm probably just gonna go buy a cheap ass $40 printer from Fry's, I only need to print text anyways.

dumbass!

try shutting ur computer down, unhook ur printer, leave it off for a few, hook it back up, start up and try again....if not, try to uninstall and reinstall...if that doesnt work, pick up your printer, and toss it from the 2nd floor of your bachelor pad! :goodjob: let me know if that works!
