Yes, I checked all this.

 

I am thinking now that the problem is not with the printers, must be
something with the Office.

 

Some computers can print with out problems, but other ones don?t. Probably
some bug with the common templates, or some worm on MSOffice. 

 

Probably restarting the server the problem will disappear, but that is
something I can?t do until the end of the day.

 

Thank you everybody for your help, Hope someday I can help you guys in the
same way?..

If this is an issue which is all of a sudden spreading to other printers,
you might wish to look into the state of your print server. Maybe restarting
the spooler service there or even bouncing it might just do the trick. IT is
also worth considering if anything has changed on your network, i.e. new
patches, viruses been detected, malware, Windows update downloading driver
updates without your knowledge, etc. or even network or TCP issues with
print servers. 

 

Hope that helps mate

I tried everything:

 

Reinstall the drivers on the server (from the original CD and from the HP
site), trying with PCL5e and PCL6

Delete all printer definitions on clients and recreated them.

 

Now the problem is growing up to the other printers. It is really weird.
Just frames, lines and simple text are printing, titles  and all bold text
are not.

 

I am getting nut.

The first thing I try when running into printer issues like this is changing
the print driver.

I have run into this with the PCL 6 drivers for a few H/P printers and gone
back to older drivers.

Good morning....

 

I have a network printer that only prints parts of any documents. No matter
who sends the document or what they send, always print or a blank paper or
just the frames, or just the titles, etc.

 

Any ideas...
