Printers
I have an HP Laserjet 4, (you know, one of those printers you would see at school or in an office)

and at first when i tried to install it it said i needed the Win98 Second Edition CD Rom so it could get the drivers,

i got that from my Comp Net teacher.

then it said that the printer was out of paper (when it wasn't),

and i figured out that i had the wrong cable. (got that too)

it got installed all fine and dandy,

but now it comes up with a Blue Screen (of Death) -when i try to print- saying:

WINDOWS
A FATAL EXCEPTION 0E HAS OCCURED AT 0018:C16095DA IN VXD LPT (01) + 0000206A. THE CURRENT APPLICATION WILL BE TERMINATED.

Does anyone know printers well and can tell me what this means?

Thanks,
-Vash

If it crashes your computer, then it means the drivers aren't good. (Or the printer could be sending some crazy stuff to the computer, in which case the drivers aren't very rhobust.) It also probably doesn't help that you're doing this on Win98.

well, you see it doesn't crash my computer, and it is the correct drivers. (i checked on HP's webpage, but they had no info on the blue screen of death)

Did anyone find the solution for this problem? I am experiencing the very same thing. The "blue screen of death" isn't exactly a death screen -- because it doesn't halt all operations of the computer, it will not print and doesn't allow you to add/delete printers until you reboot, even though other programs still work

Any advice?

Dropping the printer - rebooting -- then adding back the printer works. But this is a messy work around since it has to be done each day.
