HP LaserJet 4 M Problems

by idalynn . Updated 25 years, 3 months ago

Anyone out there who can help with my personal HP LaserJet 4M dilema? My HP LaserJet 4M does not print consistently. It seems to bog down and times out without any error messages or won’t print at all. The form light, online light and ready light stay on after flashing as if ready to print. In its total life the printer has only printed about 3000 text pages so is almost brand new. It has 6mgs of ram. I have trouble shot it by changing cables, drivers, computers. Changing computers has workedin one instance, not in others. Printing test pages is usually not a problem – printing real documents is. I bought a new HP Pavillion computer and attached the 4M to it. Now I can’t even get the 4M to print a test page corrrectly. On each of the computers I have worked with I have loaded and unloaded drivers – the original, one downloaded from HP, one downloaded from Microsoft, one off the Windows disk, etc. Each time I loaded drivers, I removed all the other drivers and had only the one driver installed. Please help. Thanks!
