Yes, it's a fairly outdated printer, but it was given to me.

Anyways, I can't seem to get it working. I've downloaded the latest drivers from the website, but when I install it, I end up getting a message that read: "Printer Not Ready: Device is busy. Try again later."

The weird thing is, when it installs I can access the cartrifges, align them, etc. When I try to print, I get that message. When I reboot, I get the message all the time (trying to print and accessing the control panel.)

It's really drustrated me and I've finally sent an e-mail to customer support. But knowing how customer support is, I figur I'll ask here as well.

Does anyone know WHAT the hell is going on there?

Windows 2000

I've got it working now (although the ink cartridges need to be replaced. Still plenty of ink in them, but they've been sitting around for so long they aren't printing properly).

The big test will be when someone else logs into the computer and tries to print.

Excellent...

If it stops working for some reason, drop me a line, I might be able to help...

If they are liquid ink toners try running the print heads under warm water and drying them thoroughly. It will bring them back to life temporarily. The more you print on a consistent basis, the longer they will stay alive.
