Subject: Windows Vista: weired: need to reboot OS to print

Hello,

I used to have a Lexmark X5470 All-In-One which
included an inkjet printer on Windows XP and when
I upgraded to a Windows Vista Home Premium laptop
I simply downloaded the driver for it from the Lexmark
site. However I would have a problem, namely that more
than half of the time I would send the job but it would not
print until I would reboot Windows Vista and sometimes
not even that would work.

So I upgraded my printer to an HP LaserJet P2055dn
which I also hooked up via USB to the latptop hoping
that the problem would go away. I am very satisfied
with the printer but for some reason once in a while
when I print I then have to reboot to get the printer
to print the pages just as used to happen with my
lexmark printer.

So what I am wondering is whether perhaps the
problem is with windows vista and whether it is
due to a USB driver bug or a bug with the printing
code.

Has anyone else experienced this problem with
printing under Windows Vista and is there a
solution so that this problem does not keep
repeating itself?

Thanks,

John Goche

I've had the same problem for the last couple weeks.  Just started
happening after about a year of use.  I reinstalled OS to see if that
corrected the problem but it did not.  My network printers all work fine
but my USB connected printers don't.  Documents print when computer is
rebooted.  Hope someone can shed some light on this.
