Hiya,
I have a Hewlett Packard psc 1215 all-in-one printer connected to my pc by
usb cable. Since yesterday however for some reason it refuses to print from
all applications. Everytime i send a document for printing it says "document
cannot be printed due to a system error, please restart windows and try
again."
(I'm using windows XP as my operating system.)
I've tried everything, uninstalling the printer, reinstalling, tested the
usb cables and my usb ports seem to be working fine and all communication
with the printer exists as per normal. I've tested the printer on my father's
pc and it works fine there but not on my pc for some reason.
I've run Norton's etc to check for registery errors but still didn't find
any problems, so I am kind of lost as to what to try next. There is nothing
wrong with the printer and my usb ports and cables etc are fine so i'm
assuming i must have accidentally messed up something in Windows that is
stopping it from printing anything.
Any suggestions/help from anyone who may have had similar problems or may be
able to help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Amit
