Another Printer Problem

A lady from down the road came into the sewing club Barb was attending and mentioned that she couldn’t hook up her printer.  Barb hesitated to tell her I could help her.  She asked me first and I said sure.

So one day, the lady was walking down the road with her sister and their dog.  They walk by at the same time every day.  Barb ran out and called to her saying I could help her with her printer.  She asked if I could come over now.  I said sure.

I went over and she explained her problem.  I tried to use the software she had downloaded from the Hewlett Packard site but I didn’t get any farther than she did.  I tried adding the printer manually.  That didn’t work either. 

Finally, I tried something simple.  I turned off the computer and the printer.  Then I turned on the computer and hooked up the printer.  Then I added the printer and it worked perfectly.  She was amazed.
