Some say definitely not and others say most definitely yes, but there are exceptions to this rule, so it’s imperative that you know where that head came from before you use it first, otherwise it’s a definite no.

Hey all☺,       Here’s the top five printing snags and our quick-fix remedies to solve them. 1. The Endless Paper Chase Problem: Printing takes too long Nothing is worse than making great time with a project only to hit the wall when it comes time to print. Slow print time can be caused by a high resolution setting, a memory issue, and/or choice of drivers.

You’ll use more paper but one-sided printing takes considerably less time. Your driver can determine speed outcome, too. High-end lasers and even

If you are getting a one inch band all the way down the page, you need to check 2 things.  1) Look in your manual to see if your printer has an excess toner compartment. If it does, it may be getting full and overflowin
