i have the same problem. how did you go.
something to do with the USB ports? i have sent an email to HP. no response yet.
Hi All..
I am a new member!My new HP 7960 printer, upon booting up computer printer starts spewing out paper as fast as you can catch it, even out of tray onto floor a few feet! Printed at top of each page is USBC RUT. The printer was first running thru a Hub, so I disconnected and ran directly into computer and still the same problem. I have read manual from front to back, and am finding nothing relateing to this problem. If I disconnect printer power before booting the computer, and then connect power to printer, the problem does not occur and printer works fine.
Computer is Dell laptop,Dimension 3200,P-4,1.8 gig,WinXP home,etc.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
