Trouble is I've still got this colour problem, which I think is Windows related.  Wouldn't want to buy a new printer and still have greeny blues.

New printer = new drivers... Have you checked what colour profile your monitor is using?

No, but woulv that be relevant, given that it does perfect direct copies?  Wouldn't know how, anyway.

Yes, because the video driver is part of the printing 'mechanism' from Windows. Right click on the desktop Properties > Settings > Advanced > Colour Management.

Been there and done all that.  Nothing seems to make any difference.  Even uninstalled and reinstalled the printer drivers.

Did you ever try it from a different machine?

No, I guess that would be sensible, though.

You will most likely need a lead like this..  printer lead

They don't supply a lead with the printer but you should get one for under a £5er locally i'd expect.

It might even be the same as your old printer lead, Bev.  ;)
