 Post subject: Uninstal HP printer software completely
PostPosted: Sat Jan 21, 2012 6:03 pm

My problem is I have an Officejet 6500 and when I first purchased it I had horrendous problems with the double sided printing which HP were never able to cure. Hence no double-sided printing.

 Post subject: Operating system
PostPosted: Tue Jan 10, 2012 4:19 pm 
Thinking of upgrading my computer from XP Home service pack 3, to Vista Or Windiws7. I have checked the specs for both systems, and realise that I will have to upgrade the Ram and maybe the graphics card (direct x9) at the moment.
Any advice on the matter guys,
Rick
