Same problem with a HP 4MP
Authored by: rikkers on Jun 20, '02 11:49:24PM

I have the same problem with my HP 4MP. I print the first job fine. After that I cannot print anything else until I restart the printer or reset it from the front panel.

I have my printer connected to an SMC Barricade. (I do not get banner pages, by the way). I have the printer connected to my new iMac G4. Under my old computer I ran the printer off of Appletalk, but I don't have that option on my iMac G4.

It is almost like the printer needs a final reset but doesn't get it.

Because of this I am considering getting a Hawkings print server (a little $50 device that plugs into the parallel port and supplys an ethernet line. It looks like it supports a lot of printing protocols (which may help). Anybody had experience with one of these?
