My aunt has one and says I can use it any time but not sher what it can do. can it help me make some cool western stuff that I need for my horse scrapbook? also would it have cool lettering for it to? please help.

What templates you have depends upon what cartridges you aunt has for her cricut. THe only sure way to know is to ask her. It should say right on the cartirdge what styles it will cut.

What is the difference between a thermal and laser printer? -

Hello! I m researching preinters as we may be getting a new one. And while searching, I see categories for both laser and thermal printers. I thought they were the same thing? Does anyone truly know the difference? (And please....no guessing!) Thanks!

the previous answer is not quite correct........thermal m/c s uses thermal paper ( reacts to heat ) the image is quot;burnt quot; onto the paper.....laser printers use a drum that is charged with -500 to -800 volts...the laser then writes a latent image onto the drum .toner is then attractted to the drum. paper passes under the drum and the toner is then moved from the drum onto the paper with another electricial charge.the paper then goes thru a heat unit which fuses the toner to the paper

Thermal uses heat to burn an image into the paper. The paper is expensive. I think Xerox also calls its color printers thermal because it heats the wax. Laser uses a heated drum to transfer an image to paper.

What kind of printer do i need to do direct imaging on a postcard? -

If by direct imaging you mean printing directly from a digital camera, then you should get one of the many small portable printers which allow attachment of a camera using PictBridge or have slots to accept memory cards. Google for Photo Printers. They are often sold with cameras by, for example, HP, Kodak and Canon. These printers are often portable and some can run on batteries. They generally print to a maximum size of 6quot; x 4quot; or 7quot; x 5quot;, an ideal size for a postcard. It may be possible, too, to get pre-printed postcard stock (with a space for stamp, address and message printed on the back).

How do i know what ink i should buy for my printer? -

Well my printer is a HP PSC 1410 Printer.Which ink is right for it and how can you tell?

- The printer should have come with documentation telling you what kind you need. - The ink that s already installed has a number on it; that s the number of the ink cartridge you need. - When all else fails, visit the official site and enter your model number. I did the work for you: http://www.shopping.hp.com/supmodel/prin…

Go into a store with the model of your printer and ask for that ink.

How do I print out a document on both sides of the paper? -

http://206.110.20.121/~lomas/Downloads/G… how do i get this on both sides of the paper when i print it out?

print out the first page put the paper back in to the tray loader the opposite way print second page repeat for how many pages there are you have to physically do it, there is no software for it

Assuming you don t have a double sided printer then Shawn has the right idea. If you have a double sided printer then when you print, change the properties on the printer first from the print dialog button. In the options there will be a finishing tab. In the finishing tab select double sided printing.

Look in your printer settings for an option to print on both sides. After you choose that option the printer will print 1 side then wait for you to turn the page over and insert it into the printer. Then you choose continue and it prints the second page on the same paper.

When you go to print, find a checkbox that says quot;Manual Duplexquot; Choose that and then print. it will print the first side and then stop. Take the paper out and put it back in with the opposite side to be printed on, click continue and it will finish printing.

How do I know if HP88 printheads are empty? -

Ive got some HP88 Printheads but I dont know whether they are empty or unused, I dont have the printer to test them on so am wondering if there are any tell tale signs to know whether the printheads are used or new (weight, markings etc) Thank you for any help in advance!

take a white cloth and wipe the head in a straight line... if you get ink after 2 times of doing it then there is ink in them... i just tried it on the ones in my printer... also look at the injection end to see if you can see any color on them...

Do I need a wireless router to be able to print wirelessly to a wireless printer? -

I can t get wireless internet but I want to be able to print wirelessly from my laptop

Understand the different ways to set up wireless printing. Any number of wireless (or hardwired) users can print by using one of the following scenarios:Printer hard-wired into the networkPrinter attached to an external wireless print serverPrinter with built-in wireless networkingPrinter hardwired to a computer on the network (this is the best option for older printers) Step2 Determine the best location for the printer. Often the situation dictates this. If there are multiple computers sharing the printer, then convenient placement is best. As long as there is a strong wireless signal available, anywhere is good. Step3 Set up printers hardwired into the network. If your printer is network-enabled (meaning it has a built-in Ethernet jack), then simply using a Cat 5 cable connects it to the network. Once it’s on the network, all users can easily access the printer. Step4 Use a wireless print server if there isn’t a network jack (or router) available to plug your printer into. These are available for both Ethernet and USB-enabled printers, so this is an extremely common scenario. Before attaching your printer, confirm that the print server is visible on the network. Step5 Set up printers with built-in wireless capability. Make sure you correctly configure the TCP/IP address, subnet mask and router info. Some models allow you to set this up directly on the printer itself, while others use proprietary software or are designed to use a Web browser. Step6 Even older models can join in. Even older models can join in. Print wirelessly to a printer that is attached to another computer by enabling Printer Sharing on the host computer. This is the best bet for older printers that are attached via parallel cable. Important note: The host computer MUST be attached to the network! Step7 Add the printer to all the computers. You can use the manufacturer’s CD, but a better bet is to download the drivers from the Web, since up-to-date drivers tend to be more stable. Windows users then can add the printer by going to quot;Printersquot; in the Control Panel. Macintosh users add the printer by going to quot;Printers amp; Faxquot; in the System Preferences. (If you’re a Linux user, then you should already know how to add a printer!)

Yes you will want a wireless router. I have my computer in the basement and my printer upstairs, I use a Linksys wireless router and it works great! You can find some really good deals on wireless routers here: http://discountwirelessrouter.com/

How can I scan a barcode for a print file and have it automatically print? -

I have 300 t-shirt designs in a folder saved as print files for my printer. I have created barcodes for each design and put them in a 3 ring binder. Now when a customer asks me for a certain design how can I scan the barcode and have my PC automaticly send the file to my printer without having to use my mouse or keyboard. Is there software out there to do this? Thank you

Try with Xerox FLOWPORT. Or inquire with them. They have software of this kind.

How do i print something thats in color, in black and white? -

i dont have enough ink, so i need to print stuff in black and white, but idk what to do please help.

file-print next to the name of the printer quot;propertiesquot; color tab under quot;color optionsquot; check box quot;print in grayscalequot;

Don t know what printer you have - but I suspect there will be an option t make it print in black and white. Try clicking on the options menu and see what comes up. But - be warned - I use a Canon printer - and it uses colour inks for Black and white. Just be advised - it may be necessary to print in a draft form to use black and white only. The other issue is whether you will be able to use your printer if it is out of ink. Canon warns when your ink is low - but there is still some ink there - but when it runs out it warns you that you will damage your printer if you continue to use it without ink

go to ur printer option and chose print in gray scale

well if you have no color ink then it should just atomatically print black and white but if you just want to make it black and white and then print it youll have to use like a photo editor or photobucket and turn it black and white and then print.. hope i helped

After you click print select properties and change the settings of the printer

Try going to print and then advance options you should find a setting for Black and White print

How do I share a printer between two computers? -

My computer is the main comp. My partner connects to the same network through a router. We don t have file sharing on or anything but I want to be able to enable printer sharing. How do I do this? What port do I use if I need to? What print server name do I use or where do I find it, etc.? Thanks in advance. If I need to provide more information, please just let me know.

First thing you need to do: Network the two computers. if they re already networked, go to Printers and Faxes and make sure the printer is set to network. In some cases, you ll need to install a copy of the drivers on the other computer.

1) You have to turn on printer sharing on the pc the printer is attached to. 2) You can name it whatever you want. 3) On the other pc you go to Printers and install a network printer when it asks the question. (You may have to install the regular printer driver too)

The printer is hooked up to one of the computers. On THAT computer, go into the Control Panel; Printers and Faxes, right-click the computer you want to share, and go to quot;sharingquot;. quot;Do you want to share this printer?quot; YES You ll have to give it a name. Once that s done, go to the OTHER computer, Control Panel, Add Printer, Add Network Printer, Browse - that should find it, then say OK and it should appear on the list of printers for the new computer as linked through the other computer.

All you have to do is...ask the two computers if they are willing to share the printer. It is that easy...

You should be able to go to my computer (on the computer the printer is attached to), printers and faxes. In there you should see the printer, right click on it and you should see a sharing option. Click sharing and make sure the box that says share printer is checked, you can create a name for the printer in there, heavensprinter or whatever. I think from there your other computer should be able to find it but I am not sure.

How can I do a fresh install of Canon MPC190 on computer with XP SP3? -

There is a trick to install the MPC190. It has something to do with a special registration key or running the install program with a switch to continue without finding the printer. I have installed the printer on XP SP3 using the trick, but lost it and now have to re-install. It is not possible on my machine to install the patch then run the installer. I have tried it already. TIA, Jay

I would contact Canon and ask them. If its part of the installation process then they will tell you what to do of where to get the registration key from.

How do I get my printer to work again? -

It s a hp psc1315v all in one . It was working fine then all of a sudden it won t copy from the computer . It will scan and copy but not from computer.

reinstall your driver, that should work
