From: Trevor on 12 Mar 2010 02:55 My HP 1022 Laser Jet has suddenly started producing pages of garbage when I try and print a single page. Can I clear its memory in some way?

Can I clear its memory in some way? This is usually done by turning off the printer for 30 sec. or more, and prudent users might also turn off all connected PCs, to wipe their temporary printer caches. Repost here if these measures fail. You may be configured to save print data to a spooler drive that attempts to empty itself automatically. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)

Can I clear its memory in some way? Usually this is caused by turning the printer off in the middle of a job. There are commands at the beginning of a print job that set the printer up. Those commands are lost when the printer is turned off, and it prints the rest of the data as text, which appears to be garbage. Don't turn off the computer, it'll just resend the partial print job when you turn it back on. Leave the printer off. On the computer, set the printer to offline, delete the print jobs, then set the printer back on line. Then you can turn the printer back on. -- Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota * USA
