Rep Power: 0 | hi mate, go to the printer on the server click on properties then the ports tab and UNCHECK where it says enable bidirectional printing, because the printer has it enabled on itself (hardwarewise) and server 2008 also has it enabled it basically stops printing after the first print. let me know how it goes |

Blog Entries: 1 Rep Power: 45   | I had this problem with a p2005n where the driver would not install. I just used the generic HP driver and it worked then. Interesting about the bi-directional setting though. |

Rep Power: 0 | yes id try the generic driver first but some printers are a pain to install on networks and the only way to do it is manually to add them as local printers and then change the port/ip settings but when you do it that way then it auto ticks the bidirectional part and thats where the problem most likely lies |
