My Lexmark X2670 printer doesn't work right since I reinstalled the Firefox 3,6 version. I keep getting the alignment page to print over and over. Is there a problem between the two? Do I need a new printer driver? What?Daisynew66

I had to change my hrowser to Firefox because Internet Explorer 9 doesn't work with my ancestry.com program. I can't uninstall Internet Explorer 9. I got Firefox 4 and it didn't work either. I started having problems with my printer working at all then. l was told to go to Firefox 3.x. I looked and there is no 3.x it is 3.5 or 3.6. I downloaded 3.6. Now I keep getting a alignment page and end up having to shut off my printer. I'm using way too much ink. I'm almost out with no hope of getting more ink until I get paid. I can't find anyplace that says to update a driver or that I need a plug-in or what might be I've done everything I know to do.wrong. It has new port cables. Do you have any idea what could be wrong? Do I need to uninstall the printer and reinstall it again? daisy

I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.

On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

  • TS1398 I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about that on about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!

    I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about, that only about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!
    The HTC hotspot works fine with everything else I connect to it.
    Also - ipad will not connect to my HTC via bluetooth. Again, I can connect to everything else with my HTC other than my ipad.
    I have to say this is my first venture into Apple products and I have always wanted to get away from my windows based laptop to get a MacBook, the problems I have had (flash player etc) & continue to have (as above) are putting me right off swapping over. I HATE technology that doesn't work and my ipad has been hard work!

    I stated my ipad as being an ipad2, but I now think it is a 3??? It was new Jan this year and is the 64gb retina display version.
    I really would like to get to the bottom on this problem wit mobile hotspots as it is sitting on my desk next to me now and I cannot get it to connect to my HTC mobile hotspot!!!! It might be taking a flying lesson soon at this rate!!! Grrrrrrr...........

  • I keep getting calls from non existing area codes and phone numbers.  They are never the same number twice.  How do I stop this?

    About a week ago I started getting phone calls on my cell phone from numbers that do not exist, including the area codes.  I can not report these to the Do Not Call list because the area code is non existent.  I'm getting these calls all the time now and never from the same number twice so there's no point in blocking them.  If I answer I may or may not get a person who has an accent from India so heavy that I can't understand what they are saying.  This is getting to the point where I just want to cry I'm so frustrated.  Anyone else having this issue or does anyone know how to stop it?
    Thank you

  • My iPad 2 doesn't work right since I down loaded ios8. It's slow and falls off line. Has anyone else had these problems?

    MY iPad 2 is slow and falls off line since I down loaded ios8. Has anyone else had these problem? Is Apple going to do any thing about it? I feel like I need to buy a new iPad.

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above has helped, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • Hello my Power Macintosh G5 2.7 DP (PCI-X) flashes and tell me theres a problem with the installed Ram! some times it powers on with no problems but now its saying there a ram fauilt and dont boot! any help here please thanks

    hello i have a powermac G5 it flashed lights tells me it has a Ram fault but some times it pwers on with no problems odd any one give me advice on this ? thanks

    Hi, while it could be the RAM, it seems more likely a RAM slot solder problem related to temperature.
    Does it do that when it's colder?
    If you're sure the RAM is good, try the Hair Dryer trick...

  • Is there a difference between the Ethernet WAN port and the other 3 Ethernet Ports on a Time Capsule?

    As posted previously, my time capsule will not set up properly because I get an IP address conflict pop up window.  Is there a difference between the "Ethernet WAN Port" and the other three ports on the back of the Time Capsule?  I may have the DSL modem hooked into the "Ethernet WAN Port".  Thanks.

    it depends what you want to achieve and what configuration you have on your DSL modem/router.
    Resetting TC and run connection wizard from the Airport utility.
    Post the problems.

  • I tired to delete a file to the trash but it is stuck.  It says "preparing to send to trash" and its been there for 2 days

    On the left above in the menu bar you see the first icon is a little apple.
    If you clcik it, there is  a menu. Click "About this Mac" it will show the OS, processor and memory.
    (Everything about your mac, you will see when you click "More Info" in that panel).
    I suppose that the "file" (icon) is a link to Sky TV:
    Quit Safari by clicking "quit" in the Safari menu ( ! ), then drag the icon in the Trash bin again. Empty the Trash (rightclik on it); when it will not empty the Trash bin, rightclick the Trash bin while holding the CMD key and "secure empty the trash".

  • HP M1120 mfp:  two sided printing doesn't work

    After that I have installed Snow Leopard the double printing doesn't work any more. There is someone that have found a solution to this problem?

    Have you updated the software through Software Update? And did you check if there was a Duplex feature that needs to be enabled when adding the printer?
    This thread also has details about adjusting the memory, but I am not sure if it applies:

  • I have a Apple imax only about 9 months old. I need a new printer. I am looking at a Canon MX926 PIXMA. Do I have Airprint or do I need to purchase it? I am a novice with Apple and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    I have a Apple imax only about 9 months old. I need a new printer. I am looking at a Canon MX926 PIXMA. Do I have Airprint or do I need to purchase it? I am a novice with Apple and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your iMac is only 9 months old, it probably comes with OS X Mountain Lion, and it includes AirPrint, so you do not need to purchase anything else apart from the printer (which is compatible with AirPrint).
    Once you have purchased the printer, you need to follow the steps of the manufacturer. To add the printer to OS X, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670

    Hi Newbie111
    I see that you are unable to scan with the Photosmart 1315.

  • Can I Airprint to HP Deskjet 6800 if so how or do I need a new printer

    Can I Airprint to HP Deskjet 6800? if so how?  or do I need a new printer?

    It's not one of the printers that is listed on this page as being AirPrint enabled, and it doesn't look like HP's ePrint app supports it either. You could try a third-party printer app such as Print Central For iPad or Print n Share to see if they work with it.

  • My Canon printer doesn't work after updating

    Hi everybody.
    Everytime when I update software, my printer doesn't work. I use Canon i-sense lbp3010b. For example, when I try to print out a document, I press the PRINT button (in any application) and it opens the printer application. It shows the message "Printing…" for some 3 minutes, then shows "Paused". I try to resume the process, but it doesn't help-the same scenario, again. Once, I have another problem on printer, which printed only graphics, not text. I solved this problem downloading the printer driver from canons austrian web-site, but it doesn't help either anymore.

    Might be best to delete device driver for printer before updating.  Then try setting your printer up afterwards.  The update may have some compatibility issues.  I'm sure there will be updates and bug fixed in the near future.  There have been a lot of issues with the recent lion software updates especially.  Best thing I can say is be patient and make sure you submit this issue to apple.

    IE9 has not yet been released in final form, it is still in Beta.  I do not know if HP has any plans to support the Web Printing application on IE9, but if they do I would not expect them to release anything before the official IE9 release.
