Does the 9210i Deskjet 340 drivers work for the 9210 and theDeskjet 350? Ive looked on the installation disk but I can find no drivers for printers. I can get it to work using the hp laserjet 4 which works to a fashion. Anyone know where I could download the driver?

Yeah it does work with 9210i, but only for the terminal font which is totally F**ked as u can only have a very small font size, as well as printing your document it prints other random letters! :x :x :x :x :x

I wish I never brought the F**kin thing, total waste of money! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

I'm gonna see if it works with my mates 9210 tonight, if don;t then I'm gonna smash it half! Well before I do that I"II give canon a call for home support.

still I'm very pissed off that it don't work properly, I mean has the darn printer got a mind of its own printing random letters, on my word document! :x :x :x :x :roll: :x 😞 :x :evil: :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x

Yes there is a possibility and that is to read instructions first! It works perfect, buy one! 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃

Hmmm. Dunno the Deskjet printers - never used them.

If they're Postscript-compatible, you could try one of the other PS printers (as someone mentioned above with the Laserjet driver). If you use a fairly vanilla PS driver with a printer that undestands fairly vanilla PS, you may have some luck. If it's not a native PS printer, but there's some way to set your printer up to accept PS input, then that might work too. It all gets a bit hit & miss, though...

I had a pn60 it takes about 12 minuets to print a fax page and the ribbons only do about ten pages before needing to be changed and cost a fortune
and you have to feed the pages in one by one

If u use normal fax thermal paper u don't need a ribbon cartrige...
