Officejet J4550

[Sam spade]

Ever since I purchased this printer my system at startup runs much slower.
Wondering if anyone else has noticed that?

Take a look at what it added to your startup entries, it's probably
starting several non essential processes or programs when you boot your
computer. Start by taking a look in Task Manager to see what is running.

Try to remove the extra bits you don't need like the help guide and other
software installed with the printer software amy be not need by you!
Also try to take it/remove it from the start up list by using this tool:
You can download this tool "AutoRuns for Windows"
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
And remove the entry from here:

Locate this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run = look in
the right pane/window and remove the entry for the printer and other
software belong to it ONLY!
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run = look in
the right pane/window and remove the entry for the printer and other
software belong to it ONLY!

I always advise against these MFU's. Reason is the heaving mass of
putrescent software (mostly unneeded, eg who faxes these days?) they install,
slowing the computer and often causing instability as well.

Run msconfig, go to the starup page, and untick those entries which are not
needed. This may help. It is relatively safe in that you can reinstate them
later if they prove to be needed.

Nope, I haven't noticed your computer running any slower.

If he takes up your offer, can you break a baseball bat across his face as a
thank you for the lack of usefulness of his contributions to this and other
newsgroups.

Actually on your suggestion I was thinking of HP and their "helpful
technical support". Spent 2 1/2 hours being bounced aound over a 45 day old
wireless mouse that stopped working and I want a replacement (cost $25).
