TextPad prints blank pages

Post by SQLDev »

I apologize in advance if this problem is somewhere in a forum. I did search but could not fid it.

I just got a new printer. My old printer was a parallel connected HP 4250 LaserJet. I now have a HP COlor LaserJet CP2025 connected via USB. When I try to print something from TextPad, the pages move as if the printer is printing, but nothing is printed on the paper.

I have tried rebooting, setting print preferences, upgrading Textpad.

Please help. I got this printer so I could print my color-coded code from TextPad.

1st step would be to perform a self test on the printer. Can the printer print to itself?

Also, click the Page Setup and make sure everything looks all right there.

What happens when you do a Print Preview?

Yes, to all questions. This seems to be an intermittent problem. Sometimes rebooting fixes it right away. Other times it takes a few tries. It has happened about three times since I posted this question.
