Shared Printer on Vista holding Jobs in Que

December 23, 2008 By Robert Owen

I had a customer computer start to die recently and we decided, since it was 8 years old, that rather than fix it we would replace it. So, we got a new PC and I set it up. Everything was a breeze with one exception. The old PC was windows XP Pro had an HP Laserjet 1020 printer attached to it and shared. The new PC is a Vista Ultimate machine and when setting that printer up to share again is when the problem hit. When I tried to test print to this printer from other machines on the network, … [Read more...]

Blackberry Bold

December 8, 2008 By Robert Owen

I've gone and done it again... Changed phones, that is. Last year, after loosing my Blackberry 7100g to a tragic water accident, I purchased the Samsung Blackjack.

So, rather than continue to flounder with … [Read more...]
