Hello folks,

I have a HP Deskjet 3325.

I'm printing a few sheets (colour) and keep getting the message "There was an
error writing to USB001 for the printer (hp deskjet 3320 series): Data error
(cyclic redundancy check)"

Can you please explain this to me? I've tried printing a few sheets and each
time (after printing a different amount on each sheet) the error message is
repeated. I had this problem a while ago which disappeared for a while.

I wrote to HP for some advice and have tried some of those suggests, all of
which have failed. Here's some of what they wrote and my most recent
response..... (maybe I should buy another brand of printer or is it a windows
thingy?)

I have resaved the file in Paint (.bmp) format and reprinted it. Problem
still occurs.

>>Go to Device manager and USB Controllers and check if there is any yellow
exclamation mark or a red cross.

There is neither a mark nor cross.

......

That Manufacturer would be HP. I have a Pavilion 6617.

Many thanks.

Maybe this will help:

Your Pavilion 6617 has an Intel 810 chipset, which includes USB handling along
with most of the other major motherboard functions.

Go to the following URL and download the Intel Chipset Software Installation
Utility. Install it. While you're at it, download the latest graphics driver
and install, too.

http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-009231.htm

If this does not get your printer working properly, there are two other
possibilities.

1. The USB cable is defective, a remote possibility.
2. The printer requires USB 2.0 to function properly, and your Pavilion supports
only USB 1.1. Yes, there is supposed to be backward compatibility, but hardware
manufacturers are notorious for cutting corners either in the design or the
testing of a product. Check the documentation for the 3325 and see if it wants
USB 2.0. Even if it doesn't say so explicitly, you may be better off with an
inexpensive USB 2.0 card installed in your computer, with the 3325 attached to
it.

Editiorial comment: The response to you from HP is typical of the mindless
stupid stuff from most vendor tech support these days, either on-line or via
telephone. Sorry, Bob Headrick, but the HP support emperor has no clothes
here. Long time sports journalist Howard Cosell offended a lot of people by
"telling it like it is", his personal catch-phrase. I tend to follow in his
tradition when it comes to computer technology. But our society has developed a
deaf ear, whether it's businesses or governments... Ben Myers

According to the HP web site, the chipset is Intel 810, without any suffix.
Doesn't matter tho. Same drivers for all 810 chipset variants... Ben Myers

Oh, don't mind me........ I think I've just found out....... went to systems
info. Guess I need to download all three items?

ie, the Intel® Chipset Software Installation Utility and the application
accelerator?

If I continue to have the same problems, I wonder whether it's worth getting a
printer of another brand?

Yes, download all of them. Install the Intel® Chipset Software Installation
Utility first, as is the norm with any motherboard chipset. In other words, get
the motherboard chipset drivers up to date and current, and go from there.

Yep, did that. :) Still have problem. :-|

Possibly. Fairly new, though. *shrug*

>2. The printer requires USB 2.0 to function properly, and your Pavilion
supports only USB 1.1. Yes, there is supposed to be backward compatibility, but
hardware manufacturers are notorious for cutting corners either in the design or

wants USB 2.0. Even if it doesn't say so explicitly, you may be better off with
an inexpensive USB 2.0 card installed in your computer, with the 3325 attached
to it.

Hmmmm, I can't remember whether the cable came with the pc Can't tell what type
it is. Printer
software/documentation says, "USB 2 compliant. The hp series offers one
opetion for connectivity. Purchase a USB 2.0 full-speed compliant cable."

I've looked through the pc's documentation and can't seem to find whether the
Pavillion only supports usb 1.1.

Where might I look?

> Editiorial comment: The response to you from HP is typical of the mindless

telephone.

Yep, and it's also interesting to contact HP on 2 differnent occasions
(months/years) apart with the same problem and get 2 different answers.

*sigh* So now it looks like I have to buy a usb 2.0 card, detach all cords and
trundle up to the pc shop and get it put in.
Hope the card isn't an expensive exercise. *sigh* Put it in myself? I
suppose but it only means having to read through more documentation to learn how
to do that. bloody machine.

Oh, another thought.... why would I be able to print (b/w) documents for a while
then have this message pop up? Surely, if it was a USB card/cable issue then
I'd get the error message from the start and not 6 months after typing
something?
