In the home we have 2 laptops. One is a Toshiba running Xp and the other is an Acer running Windows Media Edition. Both laptops have had the same drivers instaled and the setings are the same. The Toshiba has never had any problems printing from the Epson but the Acer when we first got the printer printed one or two, then would always start printing, stop half way though, spit out the payper and then print rubish on 1/5 of as meny bits of payper as it could suck in until you turned it of!!! Now it just starts, prints less than 2cm and then hangs!! We have even tryed to download updates for the Driver from Epson but nothing has helped.
If you have any suggestions other than throwing it off the roof we would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

you dont have the right driver installed
you said they both have the same driver installed
you need the right driver for the os
no matter where the printer is
the pcs os is what driver you need to install

Call Acer tech support, it sounds like the Windows Print API is corrupted.
They'll probably tell you to use the Recovery disks to return your PC to factory settings.
