I have a Hewlett Packard Deskjet 520 printer, running it in Windows 3.1
Up until yesterday it worked fine, now when printing from any windows based program, all I get is a load of jumbled letters. When printing in DOS it works fine. I have tried re-installing the drivers, but it does the same, any ideas, cheers JAmes

You may want to try a updated driver.
Are you installing the driver from the disk that came with the printer ?
It may not work with win31.Go to this link.
It may take some time on your part to find it.If all fails .Delete windows.Defrag and reinstall windows.

What is it with you people? A minor error and the reply id DELETE - DEFRAG & DISTORY

Why not try some nice simple solutions first. Reinstall Driver - Then look for Updated Driver. But Delete Windows

ONLY AS A LAST RESORT
