LaserJet 4200.

So I installed a laserjet 4200 last year and it has worked like a charm!

We got new computers in this year and apparently HP updated their drivers.

At first when you go to print it'll just close the program out, often losing all work.

I went through Windows and selected the "HP LaserJet 5" driver".

It has worked for a while but the same errors have come up.

Can anyone help me on this subject?

How are the computers connected to the printer? Are they going through a print server or are you IP printing through the JetDirect?

Also,
Have you tried installing the HP Universal Print Driver? EN - HP Universal Print Driver Series for Windows - overview and features

I have numerous 4250's here, and we see issues like this all the time.

They're all through IP.

I haven't tried the universal print driver....

Perhaps I'll give that a try.

I had issues printing large PDF files with almost the same symptoms. I ended up installing the Firmware from 2007 (not 2009). I would check the firmware versions and see which is installed.

Definitely try the HP Universal print driver. Here are some instructions if you want help:
