    The version of the NT service server you have loaded is out of date. P

    Does anyone know what might cause this error to "suddenly" start appearing? I've never heard of it before and the user states that she didn't change anything. Thanks for the advice. The version of the NT service server you have loaded is out of date. Please install version 20031014

    .pdf printing error?

    All non .pdf jobs print ok. It gives this error printing to an hp lj400n and an hp lj8550dn. As far as we can see it is sending to one printer or another. I never saw anything about distiller. Thanks, Shtick

    .pdf printing error?

    No it isn't enabled. We turn off all microsoft things like that. We're a novell house. Everyone else in this department can print everything ok. Plus we can print the same document from here ok. We also had her try another pdf file of about the same size and it gave the same error. We can't...

    .pdf printing error?

    Thanks bc. I found the providers like you described. I show Novell Distributed Print Services, then Netware print services, and then http print services. I'll check the order on the user's pc and try switching them around. Thanks for the tip and the directions. Shtick

    CD Rom eject not working

    Look for a tray icon for INcd. We've had that same problem with that software locking the cd rom trays. Take all references of that software out of your systems startup sections of the registry. /hkeylm/soft/micros/windows/current version/run.... Hope this helps

    I am unable to locate the area you suggested I check for the print provider.

    .pdf printing error?

    I have a user that gets a 'A write fault occurred on the network' error when printing a .pdf file. We changed the printer driver, updated acrobat and client 32, and set the driver to print directly to the printer. Nothing worked. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Using winxppro/novell client...

    HP4l continuous blank pages

    Quest, Power off and disconnect it from the computer. See if you can print a test page. Check all settings for the printer in the driver's setup window. Hope this helps. Shtick

    HP 5si not printing over network

    dual, Glad to hear that things are relatively smooth. As for windows spooler, I've just seen some very unique problems disappear when you set the driver to 'print directly to printer'. Not sure why. Make sure that there aren't any automatic power settings for the network cards in the pc's that...

    HP Laserjet III

    Dave, The pickup roller that you cleaned would be the best part to replace first. But, unless you know that printer very well, it's a bitch to remove/replace. Second, you can clean the cork strip (seperation pad) that is just under the pickup roller. You can access it from inside where the paper...

    Hp laserjet 4500 Printer Paper

    As mentioned above, using tray 1 is your best bet while having it exit out the other side. The straighter the paper path the better. Shtick

    HP LJ 4000 error 41.3 and jammed

    Check to see that the exit sensor(s) in or around the fuser can move freely. Will it do this on multiple page jobs and single page jobs or just one or the other? Make sure all the feed rollers are tacky to the touch like a rubber ball. How many total pages has the unit printed? Can you...

    HP 5si not printing over network

    You can try downgrading the driver to a LJ4 and see if anything changes. I'd also disable any windows print spooling (print directly to printer). What error messages, if any, do you get from the pc's that can't print to it? Clearing out spooled jobs from those pc's might also help. Shtick

    Laserjet 4250 1/2 page Issue

    Arugg, I'd experiment with different drivers such as pcl5, 6, or postscript to see if you can change the symptoms by changing the driver. I'd also see if the problem persists while connected locally to a pc. Hope this helps. Shtick

    False error message suggesting cartridges are missing

    I'd first check w/HP to see if this problem is well known and documented. Then I'd look to see if that unit has a 'cold reset' option available. Did any strange event occurr around the same time this problem started? Very rarely do these kind of problems 'just happen all of a sudden'. Try to...

    HP PSC 1350 Install Trouble

    Hey Sanity, Have you ensured that the win2k system is completely up to date on service packs and patches? I've seen spyware cause weird problems like this so you might try running spybot and adaware to remove any rogue programs. How are you connecting it? Have you checked for firmware updates...

    HP LJ8550dn Calibration Error

    I have searched thru the service manual and the website and cannot find anything related to a 'calibration error'. Please advise. Thanx, Shtick

    Windows File Protection Error

    Thanks a million B. I will attempt to use the scanners that you recommended. If that doesn't work I'll probably move the data up to the network and put a winXPpro image on that pc. I've always hated win2k anyways. Have a great week. Brian (shtick)

    Windows File Protection Error

    bcastner, I've run home search removal, cw shredder, spybot and adaware all with the most current updates. The pc was unable to access the internet until I ran the winsock repair utility. Now it will access the web ok but I still get that protection error and it cannot install windows updates...
