I've a problem printing anything with PSC 2110.
I turn the unit on, and most of the time it initializes just fine. Every now and then, quite at random, it will make a horrible repetitive sound, which seems to be coming from the scanner. It seems as if the scanner light is ramming against the right side of the scanner. There is nothing I can do to stop this other than turn the unit off with the On button, or pull the power cord.
But even if the forementioned behaviour does not occur, the printer simply will not print. It does not matter what software I use, the document is sent to the printer and according to the printer status window in XP, it is 100 % sent. Meanwhile the printer just says "1 Copy - 100%" without making any sounds at all. It just sits there. Nothing prints out. Sometimes 10 minutes or more into the waiting game, Windows will report that there is a problem with printing the document.
I am not sure what to do. I've tried aligning the cartridges; 2110 will print out the alignment page correctly, with all expected colours etc. But it won't scan it. It gets stuck at the alignment process at this point.
The printer cartridges are brand new. I cannot find an obvious physical flaw. I've tried all versions of the driver software, nothing has worked. I've tried downgrading Windows to 2000, temporarily - didn't help. I've applied the firmware update - nothing has helped.
I am at my wit's end here.
