How to duplex with a Lexmark laser printer?
in
Hi, I need to print a document out at work tomorrow, double sided and I am not sure how Lexmark printers work with this. My Samsung you have to rotate 180 degree but keep printed side down, is this the same for every laser printer? I am not sure what model the Lexmark is, but it loads from the front and the printed pages come out to the back/top rather than front, so thinking might work differently?
Any suggestions?
Answer:
Hi,
I have no idea but if in doubt what I normally do is to put a mark on the paper then print anything to see which side it comes out on.
Then put it back the other way around, print something else and see what the result is.
That way you can do a few quick tests until you know which way up to put the second side.

How to make all the computers adapt print settings from the server?
in
We have a Canon iR 3480 installed on the server, we would like to have B&W as the default print settings. I changed the Printing Preferences on the server but the end users still have color as default.
It's Windows Server 2008 x64.
Answer:
Any changes you make on the server will be reflected on the clients, but in your case that is not enough:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305402
What you need to do is disable the permissions for the client users to prevent them from managing the printer, so they are forced to use the server defaults.

The most direct way to do this is, from the server side, to right click on the printer driver. Then go to security tab. From here specify which users can manage the printer etc...
How to clean out CISS system ink from well and cartridge?
in
I have a CISS (Continuous Ink Supply System, for anyone who is not familiar) system for my printer, I just got new ink refills for it and accidentally put black ink in the well for the magenta! (oops!) :P So, I already used the syringe to suck out as much as I could, but now what? How do I clean out the cartridge, tubing, and ink well?
Okay, does it matter if the water is from the tap, or should it be distilled?
Answer:
You should wash it and clean it by using the syringe to pour in water inside. Then use the syringe again to suck the dirty water. And if you would be deciding to use other cartridges, you can buy some here.

How to change the print size to normal when printing something from the internet?
in
My HP 4400 series printer prints in very small letters. How do I increase the print size when printing something from the internet - like forms and questionnaires?
Answer:
You can't increase the font size with your printer. It does not have an option for that. You need to increase the size from the source of which you are getting the data from before you print
Example: if you wanted to print a word document, you would go to the taskbar on the top and change the font settings prior to printing.
Or do this
Open up the what you want to print
Left click and highlight either part or the whole area you want printed
Right click the highlighted area and click print preview
Change the box "As laid out on screen" to "As selected on screen" doing this will let you print all or part depending on what is highlighted
In the box Shrink to fit, change it to increase or reduce the size font that you want to use
Click print, and go to Page Range, and make sure you add a dot to SELECT
Click print

How to hook up a printer between my laptop and desktop?
in
My desktop is wired, my laptop is wireless. I have a Linksys router hooked to my desktop. Is there a way to hook my printer up to my router so that it can be used by both computers?
