Print error on HP LaserJet 4 Plus
I have a Macbook Air, Mac OS X 10.6.8 and have installed my old trusty Laserjet 4 Plus printer. It printed once, then gave me an error, "W2 INVALID PERS"
and won't print again. I am told I do not need to download another driver, the Air has what is necessary
I have tried the Generic PCL Laser printer driver as well as the HP driver and neither work. I looked on the HP site and there is nothing available for this printer, only the Laserjet 4 Plus "M"
I am using a USB to Parallel cable. In the printer queue everything seems to go to 4% then stop sending.
Even though all the sites say this will work with the Air, could it be that there is not enough Ram (or something) to make it work?
I am sooooo frustrated! It is an old printer but works fabulously for what I need AND I have lots of cartridges for it!
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Thank you,
PS...if there is no hope, can you recommend a printer that doesn't gobble up ink?
