  1. @themightymrp, yes ive printed from the machine that doesnt work to the printer next door and it prints ok. We run a printer server but have never come across a problem as strange as this. I will also look for the updated drivers to see if this is a possible solution.
  2. @bossman, cheers for the reply. Im currently testing the passmark software. What are your views on the software? And do you test the network using the software?
  3. Printer next door (same model) works fine and prints the powerpoint as normal. I have tried printing to a different model printer and this also works fine. The problem is occuring only in the one room on (I assume) all of the machines. I have tried several different machines and each of them prints blank pages. Hmm.
  4. I have recently encountered an issue when printing from Powerpoint. When I try to print the slides from Powerpoint the printer simply prints blank pages, although the print preview clearly shows the content on the slides. I have also sent a test page to the printer and this prints fine, as well as their being a good amount of ink. I have researched this and there is several issues revolving Office and printing, however nothing specific to Powerpoint. Just wondered if anybody had experienced this or a similar problem? And any solutions to the problem? Thanks in advance.
  5. All on Office 2007. I've tried printing a completed presentation and this printed all pages blank (e.g 6 slides; 6 blank pages). I then tried printing a single slide from a default presentation and also tried different print settings, as well as trying from different computers around the room. I also tried the room next to the room with the problem, which has the same model printer, and this prints the slides as normal.

  7. Thanks for your reply, I have used it simply as a free piece of software to achieve a benchmarking 'score' so that they can be compared. We are running the Dell Optiplex machines.
  8. I have recently found some benchmarking software and come across 'NovaBench'. I have tested a few PCs and have collected some results. Is anybody familiar with or have any views on 'NovaBench'? Would like to hear what you think of it.
  9. The computers at the school I work at are getting quite old and cranky and we often receive complaints of slowness. Does anybody know of any free software that could be used to test these machines and give reports on RAM/CPU/hard drive performance? Thanks in advance.
