I create reports, about 100 pages, most of which is standard information but it takes me from one to two hours to create - text and images.
I have one desktop PC windows XP computer that is connected to my HP office jet Pro 8500. This computer is used by my wife.
A second desktop PC Windows Vista nearby I use and is connected to the same printer by wireless connection through the router.
A third computer is a laptop Windows 7, mostly used in another room and is also connected wirelessly through the router.
They all communicate with the printer much of the time, but the wireless connections are erratic and very frustrating. I am not sure if the printer is sleeping and will not connect but often the project sits in the printer queue and does not print, will not restart. If I get a paper jamb or run out of ink, I end up rebooting the computer and printer to get everything working again. It takes more time getting the print out than creating the report.
