My printer has new "Properties"?
925002
Printer drivers, when installed or re-installed, all have "default" properties set.  In order for you to change the properties, go to Start->Control Panel-> then click on Printers and Faxes.\n\nFind your printer in the list of printers available.  Your defualt printer is the one with a check mark on it.  \n\nRight click on the printer and either go to Printer Preferences or Printer Properties.  Under these two sections, you can change they way things print out.  Examples include quality, paper tray choice, and seperator pages, etc... Printer Preferences has and Advanced section also.  Change these preferences the way you would like then "Apply" these new settings.  If you are unsure of the choices, simply click the "?" in the menu bar and click on the option.  You'll get a brief description of what that option will do.\n\nHope this helps!

I have seen this happen before with HP deskjets and I reinstalling the printers drivers did the trick each time.\n\nTry to get the most recent drivers of the printer manufacturers website.\n\nGood luck!

Maybe the circuitry is fried.  Reinstall the printer driver, make sure none of the plastic strips are still in the printer cartridge and then reboot your computer.

This will being up one final page.   Click clean the \n    clean the cartridge.\n\nYou may have to so this repeatedly in order to bring the print quality back.

Or if you haven't printed in color for a while, the nozzles (or whatever) may have dried out.  Try running the "cleaning" routine on your printer -- usually available by right-clicking on the printer and selecting 'Properties'.

If you have already installed the software, reinstall it again. Try closing down all programs. If not, contact the company that manufactures the printer.

Sounds to me as if your printer head needs cleaning..or you have damaged the head by using compatable ink cartridges.

Problem :\n\nThe printer is working, but the printed output shows smears or smudges of ink or the image itself is smeared.\n\n\nSolution :\n\nTry increasing the ink drying time or decreasing ink volume. \nOpen Director, then click Settings, Print Settings, then Printer Settings. \nThe printer Properties dialog box opens.\nClick the Basics tab, then the Advanced Features button. \nClick and drag the Dry Time slider toward More or the Ink Volume slider toward Light. \nTry decreasing print quality to Normal or Fast. \nOpen Director, then click Settings, Print Settings, then Printer Settings. \nThe printer Properties dialog box opens.\nClick the Paper/Quality tab and choose a lower print quality setting. \nTry a different paper. Heavier weight paper may not smear as easily as lighter weight paper. \n\nIf none of the steps above have solved the problem, print and evaluate a self-test report.

If you have a lexmark you need to tell the printer that you have installed a new cartridge.\n\nThis is done during the installation procedures, consult manual

Could be a software glitch.\n\nUninstall your printer drivers, disconnect the printer from your PC, and reboot the PC.  This will "remove the printer from being recognized as installed.\n\nReinstall your drivers, reconnect your printer, and reboot the PC.\n\nThe PC should now recognize your printer correctly.\n\nTry printing  and see how it goes.\n\nHope this helps.

sounds like you have not chosen the new printer as your default or for some reason the other documents you are trying to print are not routed to the printer. When you are trying to print one of these not letters go to file and choose print  make sure the document is going to the new printer.  otherwise try the troubleshoot option.
