Re: Finally -- Vista 32-bit ONLY -- drivers for HP LaserJet 1020
rhartley...
I still cant solve the problem with the lines, using Vista and HP1020
printer. I blew out Vista drivers for HP1020 and installed XP Drivers. I got
the same lines. It is true, I only get lines when printing a graphic and
where the graphic is and where there is a text. It is a line ont the right
side, where the graphic and the text is. There is no line between spaces.
So....I also think it is not a hardware problem, but it is a strange
problem...
It is strange coz there is no lines when printing a text document without
graphics and even with some docs with graphics there are no lines..
I´ll be continue searching something helpful. If anybody else has this same
problem, please post.
See u later...
At the chocolate factory.
