Hi all

I am experiencing troubles with a printer. It is a network printer HP
4250tn.
The problem happens only and ONLY from one particular client.
Running the print jobs from other clients works fine.
About every day, when a many pages print job has run from that client,
it starts printing garbage characters in the 1st line of each page,
leaving blank the rest of the page.
A temporary solution: I reinstall the driver. This way, it keeps printing
good for a while,
then it starts again.
So far I haven't seen any relation between the moment it starts printing
garbage and the application used to run the last print job. It can happen
printing spreadsheet as well as printing acrobat.

Thank you for your help
 
Try a "vanilla" driver like HPLJ4 or 5M or another. You may not be able to
use all the bells and whistles, but it should print.

I seem to recall seeing this problem with trying to print a PDF file, not
sure if that was with an HP though.
