Need Help with Printer Please

I am a new MAC user. So please, if you have a solution for me, speak slowly. (LOL)
I have the new G5. Bought the Epson printer to go with it. It's the CX4200.
I loaded the software for it. But can't get it to print. It seems the computer won't or can't find it in their list of printers.
Ok, so I go to a Word Doc., for example. And select print. The window says that I need to select a printer. I hit the arrow down button and there's my printer listed. So I choose that, but still won't print. Seems I have to go down to another line in the same box and find the printer in this long list. There are many Epsons listed but not mine, which is the CX4200.
And darn-it, tech support on the phone is closed at 6pm!!!??? I sure hope to see a reply soon. I really need to print something tonight.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
My personal e-mail is
[email protected]
Thanks!
Cary
PS: This process asked me to choose an OS for my G5. I have no idea what my OS is. All's I know is I have a G5. Gosh, I feel soooo dumb!

What have you done so far?
I suggest you connect it via a usb cable first. Once you get the printer working, move to wifi. You will have to use an existing printer usb cable or purchase a cable. Be sure to get the correct cable. Ask for help.
The warrenty indicates there is phone support. Give HP a call.

Need help with Printer Setup conventions

I can't get my Brother printer to print from one computer--but it prints okay from the other computer on my network. I need to know the conventions for the Printer Setup Utility.
There's a checkbox by every printer on the list. What does it mean when the checkbox is grayed out?
Some printer names appear in bold. What does that mean?
Thanx.

Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your help in this and just want to understand what you're saying.
As I say, the printer is displayed in the print dialog box but the checkbox is grayed out. I'm assuming that when you say "...it can't find/see them now," you mean the print dialogue can't see them (the drivers). Your last sentence confuses me. You say, "Do you maybe have Printer Sharing enabled & they aren't actually directly connected? If so you have to reboot after turning it off." A little confusion about your antecedents here. What isn't actually connected? The printer? So I have to reboot after turning it off, "it" I suppose is the printer, is that right? I will try that. So turn printer off, reboot, turn printer on. Right?
I will describe my problem. l thought that if I understood why the checkbox was grayed out I might see what my problem was. If you want me to start another topic I can do that.
Problem: I have a network with 2 computers and the Brother
multifunction fax/printer. I'm using an Apple airport hub. The printer
and one computer (Mac tower) are connected to the airport base via
ethernet. The 2nd computer (Apple laptop) is on the wireless network.
Until recently i could print from both computers. Now I can't print from
the tower. But I can still print from the laptop.
When I try to print from the tower I get an error message that says, "Cannot print from current printer." I have rebooted, reinstalled printer drivers, checked cables, deleted printer from printer list and re-added printer all to no avail. But as I say, I can still print from the laptop which is using Airport. So the printer prints, the hub connects to the printer okay (ethernet) and I know the tower connects to the hub (I can ping the printer okay from the tower.)
I am conversing to Brother support via email and their first suggestions I have already tried. Perhaps there's some problem in the network, but I can't figure it out. Worse yet, now when I go to the Network preferences I get an error message which says, "Your network settings have been changed by another application." THIS ERROR MESSAGE WON'T GO AWAY! I can click 'okay' but it reappears. I have to force quit the System Preferences to get out. If you can help with any of these problems I surely appreciate it.

Need help with Fancybox please

Hola
I need some help with Fancybox.
I bought this template and it came without facybox, so I thought
that this will be a great help to learn some about jQuerry, but I'm lost
Why is NOT working on my page?
I just cannot figure this out.
Can you please check my page?
http://tummytime.biz/pages/portfolio_fancy.html
I got Windows 8, Dreamweaver CC
Thanks a lot.

There are a couple things that could be causing a couple browsers' collective heads to implode.
Remove the <! right before your </head> tag...
</script>
<!
</head>
<body>
You have two calls to the fancybox css file, you only need one.
Aside from that I'm not seeing any code problems jump out at me.
EDIT: Ah, didn't scroll far enough. You have more than one reference to the jquery library. Typically, only one is needed and two or more will cause them all to fail. Usually, you can use the "latest" link and cover all your bases.
If you aren't using those referenced scripts at the bottom of your page, delete them.

Need Help With Home Please

If anyone here is good with Java, I need serious help with my homework, please give me your instant messenger screen name and we can chat, thanks alot!!
Angela

I don't understand how people get themselves into
these situations as school, if you don't want to learn
it don't sign up for the class.....You never got yourself into this situation.... I think everyone has on occassion.
My very first "serious" university program was to solve a second order, non-linear differential equation using the Runge-Kutta method. This is NOT the easy way to learn a computer language and I have to admit I did take "shortcuts" using more experienced people than me.
That was before the web though...
God am I really that old?

Need help with debugging PLEASE

Hi,
I'm new to Java and was given an assignment to debug a program. I am completely lost and really havent gone over most of the stuff that is in this program. I would greatly appreciate any help with this that I can get.
Here is my code:
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class IndexHitFrequency
private final int NUMBER_OF_SIMULATIONS = 1000;
private int indexHit[] = new int [10];
public IndexHitFrequency()
Random generator = new Random(); // for generating random number
int array[] = {6, 2, 4, 8, 5, 0, 1, 7, 3, 9 };
//convert to ArrayList and sort it
List list = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(array));
for (int i = 0; i < NUMBER_OF_SIMULATIONS; i++)
//generate random number
int randomNumber = generator.nextInt(array.length);
// get index hit
int index = Collections.binarySearch(list, randomNumber) ;
// save index hit to array
if(index > -1)
indexHit[index]++;
}//end for
String output = "Index\tFrequency\t\n";
//append the frequency of index hit to output
for (int i = 0; i < indexHit.length; i++)
output += i + "\t" + indexHit[i] + "\t\n";
//display result
JTextArea outputArea = new JTextArea();
outputArea.setText(output);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, outputArea, "Search random number 1000 times" ,
JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
System.exit(0);
}// end constructor
public static void main (String [] args)
new IndexHitFrequency();
} // end class IndexHitFrequency
I get these errors after trying to compile:
"IndexHitFrequency.java": Error #: 300 : method asList(int[]) not found in class java.util.Arrays at line 17, column 40
"IndexHitFrequency.java": Error #: 300 : method binarySearch(java.util.List, int) not found in class java.util.Collections at line 24, column 34

Need Help with Print a Report

Hi,
I am building a database application in Java and now i need to print some reports ....
I need to get the data from the database .. do some calculations , and then print in on paper.
I checked online and got some tools like JasperReports, jfreereports, ReportCat, etc. so I was wondering if somebody can suggest whats the best.
In my report I will have to print more than one table on one page.
for example:
if I have 4 Invoices. then i will have 4 tables .. one for each invoice.. and each table will contain
the elements for that Invoice.If all can't fit on one page then it needs to go next page.
I would like to do all this stuff in Java without using any reporting tool ... but I am not really sure how this can be
done .. can someone give me an idea ... as per how this can be done .. will really appriciate all the help.
Thanks in advance,

New to itunes and need help with library please

some of my albums have various artists. i cant get them to show up as 1 album it shows as an album for every song. can anyone help me please?
another problem i am having is my album artwork does not show up when I insert a cd to rip. I am also having trouble with the itunes suddenly getting all garbled up so i cant even see the screen untill I close itunes and open it back up. grrrr!! i sold my Zune to get this ipod touch and am wondering if I have made a mistake.
thanks for any help you can give me
Carri

according to you we are on the same page here. When you rip a regular cd into itunes, it does not have the album artwork engrained into the song file. This is just an example, Say you ripped a Metallica cd into itunes such as "Master of Puppets." The song on the album "Disposable Heroes" will not have the album artwork with it.
You need to get an apple account, just go to the itunes store and sign up. After you do that you can click on one of the songs from the album you ripped. Right click it, and go to the choice "get album artwork". itunes will automatically modify the artwork for all the songs on that album. That is it. I may have a post later on your other problems. Ask me if you don't fully understand what i said.

Hi, I'am new to these forums just wondering if someone can help me, my problem is I have a txt file on a web server I have read in using a 'StreamConnection' and 'StringBuffer' converting the data in the txt file to String.

you are free to use and modify these classes but please do not change the package or take credit for it as your own work.
