It's been about a week and my printer is now working as long as I leave it on all the time. It seems that as long as the printer is on before XP starts, it doesn't have a problem.
I have an HP photosmart c5280 USB printer that for some reason, has started to disconnect itself from my computer while I try to print a document. When I am ready to print a document, I turn on my printer and once it has been detected send it to the printer. This has worked for the past year...
Thanks for the quick response. What type of CIS do you recommend, or would you recommend refilling the cartridges? My only experience with an internal printhead printer was with the Epson RX595 where I spent more time refilling the cartridges and priming the head than printing.
I currently have an HP Photosmart C5280 all in one printer that I believe is on its last legs. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on a replacement for this printer. The replacement printer must print on CD's/DVD's, print inexpensive text, be able to print photos, be under $200...
