I have a PC running Win2000 Professional. Recently the HP deskjet 952 has decided to sporatically mess up print jobs. It will print a document just fine, then if I need to reprint it, I may only get the first half. If it is a 3 page doc, I might get all of page one, the top 4 lines of page 2, and 3/4 of page of page 3. These print jobs are simple text, no graphics. For another example, I just printed 2 test pages as soon as the computer was booted up. The first one printed 2/3 of the test page, and the second had the whole document.
I deleted the driver and reloaded the driver from HP's website. This did not solve the problem. HELP!!!!

Try replacing the cable and make sure that it is plugged in all the way. If it is hooked up via usb, also try using a different port.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!! It turned out the parallel cable went bad. I had never had that happen before.
