    Printing error

    I am trying to print on an HP Laserjet 5

    Printing happens intermittently. Sometimes it prints just fine. Other
    times, the status for the job in Vista's print queue is "Error - Printing".

    I can delete the job (but I have to delete it twice). If I reboot the
    machine, the job in the queue will print properly immediately upon rebotting.



    Any ideas on what might be causing this?

    Re: Printing error

    is this device connected to the network, shared from another machine, or
    connected to LPT?
