How do I switch my printer to print ONLY black and white? -

I have a lexmark X73. My color is running out so i need to know how to print in just black and white. thank you.

insert cd (lexmark x73 printer ) in cd drive and install toolbar for your printer . it s very easy to print with this toolbar and more options(black and white). good luck !

Go to Control Panel. Click on Printers amp; Faxes. RIGHT click on your printer, and then click on Printing Preferences. It should be under the Advanced tab, that s where mine is. Good luck!

How do I remove the roller from my Lexmark printer? -

My Lexmark printer is not printing and I cannot afford to get it fixed.

Which roller ? It won t work even after removing some roller. Only a person who knows printer can help you. If you can tell me details of model, software you are using and problem details, I can suggest you some action.

So you want to remove the roller from the printer? What good is that going to do you?

Where is the best place I could recycle printer ink cartages for money in the UK? -

Its for a company that have been recycling for a while now but the company they are using has reduced the price they pay for cartridges, we would like to move to a different company so we can get more money for them. Who would be the best for this that offers a good price?

price has gone down BECAUSE they are useless maybe talk direct to a company that does refills, cartridge world etc

The only places I have seen with facilities for depositing used cartridges do it solely for the environment and do not offer any money.

Withing the last year the prices of cartridge cores has fallen. No matter which company you deal with you are going to be receiving less money for your empties.

How do I get my laser printer to print the correct colors? -

I m working in Photoshop, I have the image in CMYK mode, I tried printing in all settings where either printer manages colors or photoshop manages colors. My colors are so grey and dull, I m trying to get a lime green and I can t get it no matter what I try. I have updated drivers. Any suggestions? Printer is an HP Laser C100

Go to printer properties and check automatic for color... this should do the trick

If I want to print out a poster with a 90cm by 60cm dimensions, what resolution do I need and how much DPI? -

Also is there a specific type of paper that I need to use? Thanks!

The trick is finding a printer that will work, and that printer will decide what paper you can use. At 300 DPI = around 760 DPCm (good for everything but photo paper) the width of the image would be 10,600 pixels or so. Using plain white you could get by with just 2,750 pixels, don t go lower. Photo quality should be 600 dpi or better so you are looking at over 20,000 pixels width.

How can I set it up so I can print 4x6 pictures that cover the whole photo paper? -

I have a Lexmark printer. To print 4x6 it uses the post card setting. But it doesn t print on the entire paper, there is a white border around th picture. And it is not even centered, so one side has more white than the others.

select white borderless option in the software if you do have the option

How do I find out the ip address of my print server given the print server is built in to the printer.? -

My printer is also connected to BOTH my pc via USB and the router which is also connected to my PC. Thanks.

Depending on the type of print server you have , I would look through the menu options and look for the print server configurations and, press the necessary keys to print out the configuration, that should tell you what IP is of the printer server.

What is a reasonable priced printer to run with Vista Home Premium? -

I have just upgraded to a new comp with Vista with it. My old printer won t install so I have to buy a new one. I print alot of course work (essays) but not a lot of colour (but some ). Printers look pretty cheap at Argos etc but do they cost a fortune in printer cartridges. What would you go for on a budget of about ￡50?

Buy a black and white laser printer. http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132539 i got this one, ￡40 inc vat and includes toner cartage. tone lasts and lasts, very cheap to print you can easy buy refill toner kits for around ￡10, pour out the dead toner and pour in the new. i was so happy with it a got another as a present for my dad. i run a business and print lots and lost of invoices on it. So far i got through 10 reams of paper (5,000 sheets) and am still on the original toner that came with the printer. must be less than 1penny per a4 print. as your a student? i think the toner included will more than last your whole course. And many of your student friends. prints fast to 20 pages per min, very crisp text (as you would expect with a laser printer). Far sharper prints than any ink jet pinter . very small (about the same size as a ink jet printer). I cant understand why people still buy ink jets! Even Colour laser printer are ￡100. (pc world and staples), but very big beasts, they have to be to fit in four (red, blue ,yellow amp; black) toner rollers in. p.s I have Vista too, driver works fine. also the samsung software inc has settings to print colouor pic s in bamp;w that look clear (not washed out). if you need colour prints (photo s) use a friends or go to boots and use the photo printer in store. 30p single photo print, or as low as 5p if printing lots. (cheaper than buying the photo paper alone)

The KODAK All in one 5100 was priced at ￡49.99 in Argos recently, and both colour and Black ink cartridges are reasonably cheap to replace.

Just look around for the decent printer we could recomend a printer but you might not like it mate get your own then it s your mistake not ours.

Post this question on Computer Q s http://www.ComputerQs.com you should be able to find an answer there and login is easy (it was for me) They have a good Tech Staff but lust about all printers can run on VIsta just configure through the control panel but Lexar makes great printers for cheap and the ink is nicely priced to. (stick out more money if you are doing pictures and colors though)

Kodak have a printer which costs a little more to buy initially but the ink is really cheap, I got one and can highly recomend it. Its the Easyshare 5300. It works well with Vista.

any and every printer works with vista. you just need the appropriate installer. your printer must have come with a cd, right. now the software which came with it was only meant for xp and the os before it. just go to your printers website and for that printer download the appropriate software for vista and install it. your printer should work. i have a hp 1400 all in one which came with the installer cd for xp. i upgraded to vista last week. i did the same thing.

How can I get my printer to print right-side up? -

I am trying to print wedding invitations onto vellum paper. There are two holes at the top of the paper which seems to be making the printer eat the paper but it is only because the paper has to be fed upside down. Is there any way I can get it to print right-side up?

what software are you using? One way is to put your text into Word and then copy the words into a graphics program, then rotate the text 180 degrees, then insert this graphic back into word.

You cannot print quot;upside downquot; on any printer, even printers that have a duplexing capability quot;flipquot; the paper over to the same printing side.If your invitations your e trying to print are on quot;card stock, make sure you set the printer settings to Card Stock, it will adjust for the paper thickness.

Hang your printer on the ceiling.

Probably not. You should read the manual.

Is it possible to print onto aluminum foil with an inkjet printer? -

I tried it once you cant really see much detail. Also, the ink stayed wet and not seeming to stick to it. Are there any printer settings or special printers that can do this?

in a word no.

How do I fix a paper jam when there are no papers jammed in the printer? -

I have a Dell All-In-One 924 Printer. It displays a error message: quot;Clear paper jam. Press gt; (Start) botton to continue.quot; The problem is that there are no papers jammed in the printer and pressing the gt; (Start) botton changed nothing. The error message is still there. What should I do?

Best thing to do is take the toner out, sometimes the paper can be stuck under there, also although you can not see the paper jam look very closely where the ink goes and see if its there. After that unplug the power from the back on the printer (do not just turn the printer off, you have to take the power cord out) after its out for about 60 secs, plug the printer back in and see if the paper jam has been cleared. -Reggie http://www.diycomputertips.com

Double check for a jam if there is none than re-start your printer and it should work

get a shop vac, plug hose in the exhaust hole, and blow it out. you have a chunk of paper/debris in the paper path somewhere. often there is a panel on the backside of the printer that will give access to the rollers. blow from here too. remove the ink cartridge as well during this process.

If you sure that no paper jam in printer, you can turn the printer off and then on. If still not working, restart your computer and reinstall printer driver

You have to probably get the cartridge out and then you will see that there is really a paper jammed there. Follow the messages on the printer and get the paper out. I have done this two times. You have to remove the cartridge first.

Check if there is a sensor and clean that otherwise there may be a small (very small) piece of paper stuck, you ll have to try and find it. Good Luck!!!

If you are sure that there is no paper jam, then just restart the printer and it should work

Go through the process as if there is a jam and make sure the sensor does not have any dust,paper on it. then when finished make sure all parts are properly secured and that should do it. If not turn the machine off as this resets then try it.

Unplug the printer from the power, wait a minute or two, then plug the printer back in and see if that helps.

Unplug it and then plug it back up

turn your printer on and off and back on or push ok or all the other buttons to see if that works take the paper out of the tray and turn it on an off it my just be crooked paper

i dont know but it sounds like you took that straigt out of the movie office space... if you ve never watched office space i suggest you do...

How do i calibrate my computer and printer? -

I would like my printer to print as per the colours shown on my computer screen. I think I need to calibrate the two, how do I do this. I have a canon printer and a mac book pro laptop. Any help please?

I doubt you can do it manually, you ll need a gizmo to do it for you. There are a number: I used a Spyder. Below is a link to spyder products. I used this and it works - made a big difference, too, as quot;what you see is what you getquot; instead of wasting 2 - 3 sheets to get a decent print. I bought mine second hand, don t know new price I m afraid - but places like DABS.com and so on will stock them.

the software that came with your printer should do it for you if not go into your printer settings and print a test page that will do it for you

How to make black cartridge ink more darker ? -

How to make black cartridge ink more darker ? I refill it at home. Can I add something to ink ?

Absolutely do not add anything to the ink. The best thing you can do is make sure you are printing on quality ink-jet paper; its designed to handle wet inks.

Whatever you do ... don t add anything to the ink. You could damage the print heads. Play around with the print quality. That is your best bet beyond buying better (more expensive) ink. Good luck!

Get higher quality ink refills. Or get whiter paper so it looks darker ^_^

when u want to print a page in your printer window select preferences and chose the best quality.
