Does anyone know what to do.PLEASE thank you Please contact the support department of the manufacturer of your printer and request some assistance. Your issue is unrelated to the Windows XP operating system.

[quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > | > | thank you What's wrong with that response? The message is being generated by the printer's supporting software, it's not an OS issue. It's not like Carey told him to "drop dead, it's not our problem" or "sorry buddy, you're sh!t out of luck". He simply told him politely that the best avenue to resolve the problem is support for the printer, and he's right. An alternate solution might be the printers and hardware group, where someone might know how to hack it, but it's most certainly not a question for the generic OS group.

Does anyone know what to do.PLEASE Your question has nothing to do with WIndows XP, and moreover how to do this depends on what printer you have (which you haven't told us). Your best bet is to contact your printer manufacturer and ask them. But if you are under severe time pressure, I wouldn't do this now. Just put your letter on a diskette or CD and take it to the computer of a friend who runs the same word processing software you do; print it there, and worry about your printing problems later.

You're welcome and not a problem. More than anything else, the problem with posting to the wrong group is that you might not get the answer you need.

SignatureFrank Saunders, MS-MVP OE Please respond in Newsgroup only. Do not send email http://www.fjsmjs.com Protect your PC http://www.microsoft.com./athome/security/protect/default.aspx http://defendingyourmachine.blogspot.com/ All the major inkjet manufacturers require you to have operational (not empty) black AND color cartridges in your printer at all times. That's why it's a good idea to stock up on both type of cartridges when the printer's utility indicates that you're low on ink. > Hi PLEASE can anyone advise me.
