Ivan didn’t trust Windows XP any more now that is no longer
supported by Microsoft. The network
printer was hooked up to one of the Windows XP computers in the basement. Ivan decided to buy a new router with a USB
port, so he could hook the printer directly to the router rather than
have it connected to a computer. So Ivan
bought a new router, installed it and hooked up the printer. He tested it out. Everything looked fine. So he filled the paper tray and
went to bed. The next day when Ivan got
up, Barb broke the bad news to Ivan. The
printer installation was screwed up.
When Barb tried to print a quilt pattern, it printed multiple copies
and would continue printing until it ran out of paper. Fortunately, Barb noticed that something was
wrong and was able to turn off the printer.
But when she turned it back on it continued printing. So she turned it off and left it off until
Ivan woke up. Ivan searched the internet
and found the problem. He needed to
unclick a switch on the printer setup.
Then it worked fine.
