....*sits on top of a pile of plastic* got'cha, you damn printer...finally I managed to get the pile of plastic and electronic back to work... at least it started to print black again... now we still have to work on the printing quality and then, I hope, everything will be fine again, so that I can print out some things which need to be printed out and shipped...
well... if anyone knows about the bad quality problem of a brother DCP-165c, please... tell me how to get it back to work right again... I'm already happy with what I got to work after sitting in front of the printer for 4 or 5 hours, printing testpages and doing the cleaning sequence...
plus... I don't know how to get the printer enabled as a network-printer on my winXP computer.... I tried it several times, but it looks like XP and my printer refuses to work together over network...( printer was normally connected via USB to my computer before, so the driver of my printer are already installed on my computer )
and it was easier to get the laptop working with my printer, and I have to say, that on my laptop is ubuntu installed, and the driver of my printer are NOT in the official driver-packages of ubuntu... so I had to install them manually, and that can be a pain in the ass with ubuntu...but ok...printer and ubuntu don't like each other via network too... but hey... I can carry my laptop to the printer easier than my computer to the printer, or the printer to my computer...nyah...
