The printer works, for a while then it spits out an invoice with house's and odd charactors i have to shut down system and turn off printer, bring it back up, then it ok for a while, then it happens again do you have a suggestions to fix this problem thank you
1) First Disconnect the printer cable from the printer and computer, inspect the cable for damage
replace cable, if you have a different cable even better
2) Reboot PC and Re-install printer driver
3) if these steps do not work, it is possible there is a problem with the main board in the printer, sometimes, removing the board and re-installing it can help (dirty contacts inside)
but usually with problems like this is the drivers or cable
hope this helps

THANK YOU, I UNPLUGGED THE CABLE AND CLEANED AROUND IT. IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING FINE.
WE ALSO HAD A BATTERY CHARGER AND PENCIL SHARPER PLUG IN NEXT TO PRINTER ,MAYBE THEY WERE CAUSING SOME INTERFERENCE, WE MOVED THEM, AND UNPLUGGED CABLE AND CLEAN IT , NO MORE HOUSE'S AND OTHER STUFF. THANK YOU I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.
