I have used a HP2280 Businessjet with an integrated HP JetDirect 615n
server card for some time.  The printer connects to the network
through a 3com Office Connect ADSL Wireless Router.
The printer server has recently failed to connect, in fact the two LED

Measekite in an earlier post implied I was dishonest, didn't really know
what I was doing, and working for an ink reseller when I posted that the
non-Epson inks I was using were better for me than the OEM Epson inks. I
wrote that these inks never clogged my Epson 1270 with its ...

I have a Hewlett-Packard Colour LaserJet 2605dn printer which works fine,
but recently on checking the built in web server for the status of the
cartridges, it is showing a rather peculiar result.
The "pages remaining" count for the black, magenta and yellow cartridges

I never thought of myself as a Revolutionary for seeking Epson or HP Photo
Paper in 8 x 12 size
to match the 2:3 ratio of 35mm film cameras and most Digital Cameras in use
today.

I've got a point of sale printer connected to a pc where my bartender
gets the tickets the waitresses need for her to make.  The pc has no
serial ports, thus I had to buy a USB to serial adapter so my printer
will print network jobs as this is how the point of sale vendor has

I am trying to print a barcode (3 of 9) using an Okidata printer that
is running in Epson FX mode.  I have tried using the Okidata escape
sequences, but they did not work.

The Cartridge LED blinks soon after you turn on the printer, just after the
printer gets through its power-on tests.  The ink cartridge indicated when I
open the cover is the color cartridge. The cartridge is recent, but the date
on the cartridge is 2004. (The cartridge is a ...

you some how dump the ink in the original cartidge?

We have a Windows 2000 network with SBS.  We have had a bunch of NT4
machines for years, two of which had HP LaserJet printers connected
and shared.  All was fine.  I have replaced the NT4 machines with
XP(sp2) machines and am having nothing but problems with the

I want to know how many pages I get out of a print cartridge. Is this
info recorded anywhere in my computer? Or how many total print jobs?
Or etc?

I've got an excellent condition and little used HP LaserJet 6L printer that
only has a parallel cable output-- but my new computer doesn't have a
parallel port-- just USB.
So I got a parallel/Centronics to USB adaptor cable-- but the computer

LEXMARK X1270 is not a good printer, believe me.
They BOX them with dried ink cartridges and take THREE weeks to give
you one that works. They are 1,180 dB loud printers, they make dogs 13
miles away howl when turned on. When you reboot people call 9-1-1

I've just bought a D-link DP-301P+ parallel print server.
Everything seems to work fine with my HP 970cxi printer except for two
things:
1) The ink statistics will not show - I'm not too bothered about this.

The Epson phone rep offered me a "deal" from Epson.
Just go to www.epson.com/loyalty and puch in the passcode
she gave me.
Eventually I got through the maze and got to "loyalty". What a joke!

When measekite accused me of not knowing the name of the company from
which I had gotten my very satisfactory 3rd party inks because it did
not exist, that I was making it up, I was offended. As I wrote, it had
been quite a while since I had gotten the ink becasue the large
