Hello, my printing challenged friend. Here'a a couple of options. First, make sure you are using the proper driver for what you are printing. (i.e. Post Script, HP/GL, PCL5e or PCL6, etc.) Once that is straight, try updating the jetdirect firmware to the latest rev. If you use HP Web Jetadmin, the tool to do this is built in. If you use 3.2, I think it is, there is a download manager you will have to use. There is also a tool to update the printer itself, if the printer has that capability.

Good luck.

I have ran into similar problems with hp 4050 printing all black within certain applications. This was because of the printer drivers from the workstation, mainly the PCL6 drivers. I just used a older version of the 5e and fixed the problem.

The MIO error usually raise when putting invalid instructions in PCL.
Double check your workstations drivers installation, this may be the main problem.

IF the document that raise the error is identified, try printing it from another WKS.

Try adding Ram to the printer ,and a postscrip chip as metion before check and see if if correct drivers are loaded also.
