Hi folks

I know this printer is almost antique but as it's here I might as well
try and get it going. It'll do a test print without any problems (apart
from not always picking up the paper) but when I hook it up to a PC and
try to print something the orange led flashes to tell me it's out of
ink. I've done the usual contact cleaning and changed the pc>printer
cable but no joy. I've swapped the cartridge with a working one from
another printer without any luck. I could understand it if it wouldn't
print at all but to print a test print okay but not anything from the PC
confuses me!
 
Hi

Well, I've got it to work - I set it up on another PC! Not sure what the
problem is though. Both PCs have the printer port set up the same and I
used the same lead. Oh well.......
