computer help

yeah hubby prints stuff off at work too.. but I don't have access to a "work" printer

we've been known to email things to ourselves or to each other for printing

works perfectly for us.

hubby doesn't sit by a computer all day and some of the stuff I want to print he can't print at work.. nothing dirty or anything so get your mind out of the gutter Charles

ok new problem...

my computer has been driving me nuts this past week or so..... it seems to pick a page at random that I try to load and say "this page cannot be displayed" and even when I try to refresh it doesn't work... the only things that works is if I reset my IP address i seem to have to do this several times a day....

i can access any other page just not that page... and like I said it is a different page every time....

I think hubby says he has the same problem sometimes but he says he just does a refresh and it is fine ..

i am thinking it is either our router or the new PCI card I installed a few weeks ago

ok someone suggested turning off the onboard Ethernet controller in the BIOS

dang, printer...

for some reason it doesn't want to print black anymore and some of the colours seem to be mixed up.... I did just put in a new ink cartridge 2 weeks ago and it was working fine .. I did clean the cartridges this last weekend and now it doesn't want to print black ...

just now I tried printing something out in dark green and it came out purple...

ok, i uninstalled and reinstalled the printer and it works now.. I think it messed up when I installed the dam service pack 1 thing.. I uninstalled that earlier...
