Only Part Of The Page Prints, A Lot Of Vertical Lines And The Graphics.
When I print a page only some parts of it print. A lot of short vertical lines and some of the graphics, but using the entire page of paper. I have had this printer HP 5100 deskjet for several years, but I was using it with a different computer for a few months. When I reconnected it to this laptop the problems began. I don't see how those events could be related. I tried a Printer Test Page which says that I have correctly installed the hp Deskjet on this computer. When I preview the page before printing it looks fine.
