HP LaserJet 4MP printing problem
I'm having a frusrating time getting my HP Laserjet 4MP to print through OSX or Classic 9. It's connected to my 40 gig Graphite iMac through an Assante LocalTalk adapter, and I was able to print a few things in the Classic enviroment, after downloading the printer driver from the HP website, but then for some reason could do it. It keeps telling me it can't find the printer. I'll try the unplugging trick, and what ever other suggesting I can understand from other replies, but if any one can suggest something, please do.

I have a 4MP and it's printing fine from OS X--haven't tried from Classic (I don't think...).

I had 4MP printing problems also when I installed OS 10.2.2 on my G4. Same ol' configs like everyone else with my setup: phonenet line to an asante talk into an ethernet bus. Wouldn't it be nice if there was an apple talk converter directly into a USB port?! Anyway, I downloaded updated drivers, etc from HP, Asante and something from Linuxprinting called "Gimp-print" & "Ghostprint" (http://www.linuxprinting.org/tylerb/). Still nothing worked. So, I decided to do a simple thing recommended by 'ahl'....I unplugged/replugged the power cord on my asante, and repostioned my ethernet connection from one port on the bus into one next to it, and whatta you know. Bingo! I can print!...I'm now afraid to touch it thinking it won't work if I fiddle with it. I still can't believe it would be this simple to do. |
