Annoying Problem HP840C

[Duffers]

We have a Deskjet 840c installed locally on a Pc. It worked without problems for a couple of months but now a very annoying error message appears with every print job.

Basically you go to print something, the printer starts to print then the following message appears on screen
"There was an error found when printing the document "name" to LPT1. Do you want to retry or cancel the job?"

If you just ignore this message the printer continues to print and the message disappears.

I have tried everything to try and get rid of it to no avail, can anyone help me ????

Try changing your bios settings (ECP, STANDARD, ETC).

Sometimes you will start to get those kinds of errors if you have an ink cartridge getting low on ink and/or starting to go bad. Also, I would check the cable to make sure it is firmly connected on both ends.
