[buffythenappyslayer]

been trying to print out some party invites,but the sodding printer isnt doing anything!!

its plugged in,lights are on,paper in it,cable in the back going to the laptop,but when i click to print it just sits there doing sod all!!!

what am i doing wrong??

does it need to go in the bin??(its heading that way!!)

need to get these invites done as alot are getting sent abroad!!

hoping someone can help!!thank you!

Do you have a hammer ?

[buffythenappyslayer]

thank you everyone!!!

i swore at it,threatened to put it in the nappy bin (oh yes,im ruthless,no ordinary bin would have been bad enough!!),i pulled its bits and bobs to bits,replugged them in and with one last evil glance,it surrendered and started printing!!!

it is now struggling through 40 invites!!!ha!!!i'll teach it to mess with me!!!

but thank you everyone for suggesting what to do!!!

You mean the cable was loose, right ?

[buffythenappyslayer]

no they were all in properly.

thinks its going on the blink as its making really odd noises and is going unbelievably slow.

weve had nothing but probs with it since we bought it.its been sent back to hp twice!!
