hp deskjet 712c + XP

Recommended Posts

I know the deskjet 712c is supported by XP without any additional software, but I'm still having printing issues. I can print from Notepad just fine, but any other program screws up. The printer will activate and begin to print the document, but it stops and just sits there after printing about the first centimeter of the document. The blinking green light keeps flashing, but the printer cartridges slide back to their "parked" posistion, and the print job disappears from the print queue. Here are my specs.

 

Abit KT7A-Raid w/ 3R bios

Athlon 1.2Ghz

256MB PC133

Geforce2-mx 400

SB Live! Value

WinXP Pro

 

Any Thoughts?

Ok, I just realized that the problem is with either my scanner or external zip drive. Since the printer was connected to the end of the chain of devices, something was strange was going on. When I plugged the printer into the computer directly, it worked fine. Now to isolate the problem to either the zip drive or scanner.
