Headaches nothing but headaches.
The all-in-one without the USB cable was a Cannon ... At least yours came with the freakin' cable. I did not appreciate having to pay $20 for something that should have been supplied. Oh well ... At least it's working. Hopefully, you can get your up and running, Aks.
I'm a tolerate person in fact some say I let things go to long which I am sure could be possible at times or with certain folks.
It really chaps my lips when some folks say ill things or condescending when trying to control others thoughts, words or conversations. Just because you say or do things differently than them doesn't make their way or them better than you. It gets old when the same person is trying to control e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g because nobody can like them. Then thinks saying they didn't mean it will make it all OK only to keep doing it in another situation where a crowd is gathered.

^^^ Thanks for the link info. Yes, I've tried everything they said to look for, both before and I rechecked again from the list of things on that link. Still nothing printing. I'm going to work with it more later,,,,,, after I first put the hammer away.

This is new technology NMS, it’s not plug and play like a few years ago. LOL (not that plug and pay has anything to do with male and female machines) It’s this new airprint stuff, and my first time with an apple ipad. Well actually Mrs. Aks’s ipad, she only wants me to make it work and tell her how to use it.
I felt bad this morning having to go with Mrs. Aks for her appointment at the apple store in town where she had setup a one hour training class with them. I didn’t want to go,, you know it’s a man thing ~ who wants to take a training class, right!
So here we are at a large table with other white, grey, and blue haired seniors who are all trying to figure out just what they bought and why? All they wanted was information on how to turn the damn thing on and what was it that they could use the ipad for? The young instructor of this class had to roll his eyes back several times with many of the questions that came from those who fumbled the ipad machines, even when they continued tapping the screen to see if they could get something else would work or happen. It reminded me of kindergarten, where all I wanted to do was get under the desk and lay down on my small rug that we each had. If I could have cried my eyes out to help get me out of this class I would have, but no such luck ~ Mrs Aks was right there beside me.
That ended up being an hour of my life that I’ll never get back. Lesson learned,,,,, “don’t go to training classes on things you don’t want to know about”. I came home and turned on my windows pc machine and the world got better…………………
