[Re:] Recommend a Good Printer using XP Pro

I have a new Dell PowerEdge 400SC Server with Windows XP Pro, 1GB ram, Norton System Works, Norton Firewall, can someone recommend a good reliable printer to buy?

I have a hp deskjet 5650 that worked good with my old Dell and Windows Me, but with many attempts a hp support I cannot get it to work, may have something to to do with networking, don't know.

I have used hp technical support and installed drivers, uninstalled, removed hardware, reinstalled hardware, change spool until I'm blue in the face.

However, the hp printer test passed;

Hold down the power button and press the down arrow key 4 times with the printer cable disconnected from the computer worked, so support says my printer is functional.

Bought a new high end cable from Altex reinsatalled from computer to printer, no help.

Any suggestions? The printer is ok, the drivers are the latest from hp, the cable is good, power is good, may be the config, but don't know how to do any changes.

What is a good reliable, easy to install printer to use on my new computer? Less than $200.00.


Help,
