I installed an HP deskjet 3535(USB) ; I have to reboot at leat
twice a day because print jobs hang ( and are not deleted when I open
the printing Icon ).
When I reboot , it prints the hanging print job.
Went to HP's site and got no help there ( or drivers )
When this situation happens I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL and in processes
there is a "dllhost.exe" on the top of the list ( XP file )
Using XP Pro SP1 without internet access . Startup progs
are NAV 2004 / Palm Hotsync / shorkeys ( a macro program )
Pentium 2.8 HT / 512 RAM / lots of disk space
I have another computer using the same printer'
and same SO version with no problems ( AMD Sempron )
Sugestions ? ( besides throwing the printer away ? )
