RE: HP 2430n printing issue
If you make another queue to that printer from a different server (or workstation if it's direct), loading the same driver, does the problem still happen? This should narrow down if it's really something in the queue/driver config, or something with the printer itself. If it still happens, I'd look for the cold reset option on the printer to see if it still does it from factory defaults (plus your network config). -Bonnie On Wed, Jan 6, 2010 at 5:24 PM, Joseph L.

Re: HP 2430n printing issue
Have you tried checking that all the drivers are the same on the clients? I had one case where a driver change on one printer did not change the driver on another printer with both being the exact same model and firmware on the printers.
