I have an HP printer version Deskjet 882c..it's own software doesn't work with XP..I think it was "95-98" respectively. It worked fine on both those systems. HP installed a much leaner version on SP minus some nice features. I didn't have problems until I TRIED to update with the older version--not thinking there would be a problem. Since then the printer isn't functioning well without all kinds of errors. I tried removing the version I installed. Didn't change anything. IF I am lucky I get one page printed and then the computer goes into error--all the lights starting repeating on and of in succession. THAT will stop and then it produces page after page of jumble until I shut it off, cancel and reboot and sometimes I have to go thru THAT 4 or5 times. Gotten very pesty this situation. I don'tknow WHAT to remove to totaly delete the whole program to try and start over. There are so many files and I think some unrelated to the printer. I have a restore disk that has the files on it but getting rid of un necessary to get back to normal???ARGHHH..its been too far back to think about useing restore in the computer.AND I can't find the owners manual. GROWL.. I didn't think about the "in house" restore in time. SOOO Any ideas?.. Been shuffling thru this for days... *~<*> Mary Lou<*>~* /\ - /\ >> ^.^ << --0---0-- kg6ocz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx In the land of Theraputic Hurricanes Why wait?...join Earthlink...
