    Vista Hp Problem

    I have a USB HP Laserjet P1005 printer in the office. I installed it on Windows Vista and worked for while(about a month or so), then the printer just went quiet. If U connect on to it, it does tell U the OS has recognised the printer, but when U send a doc for printing, it doesnt print. The doc simply queues for the whole day without any error message. The status being ... printing.

    I tried all tricks I can but still it doesnt print. Trying the printer on a Windows XP platform, it works just fine.

    What could be the issue?

      I do not think it is an HP problem. I just got a new vista system and the old printer does what you described. Hope someone can shed light on this.

              Nope

              No, not really, I've been relying on the drivers provided for the printer. Let me download and try.

              Thanks
