Any tips guys for printing on glossy brochure paper using the HP Deskjet 5850???

I have been tasked by the wife to print a message on the back of a glossy brochure and wasnt having a lot of luck.

Basically the best quality was to set to print on brochure matt finish (although it was gloss) and to use maximum dpi (so the printing was fairly slow allowing the ink to dry) and to put the ink volume on its lowest, this then gave its best results.

Any other settings just smudged all the time.  Any one else have any tips for this printer.  Photos, and all other types of printing seemed to have been fine, perhaps its the dodgy brochure paper.  Its a rather good network (wired and wireless) printer would recommend it all be it for this little mishap.

Yet again the server fails to sell. I guess its quite specialised or it was the Wont post only deliver to the south of england, so if any one is looking for this kind of spec drop me a line. I will even look into posting it if someone wants it that bad. Here is the speel. Due to upgrading, now selling a dual xeon 2.4ghz server.

Less than a year old, all in working condition.

Many parts in it, may sell parts seperately if the price is right, contact me to discuss.  The server consists of ….

Case: Lian Li PC 70 Aluminium Full-Tower

PSU: Antec 550w

Supermicro X5DAE motherboard

2 * XEON 2.4Ghz cpu

Adaptec ultra 160 dual channel scsi raid card

5 * 18Mb scsi u160 10000rpm drives (3 ibm
[deskstar]
and 2 Quantam
[Atlas 10K III]) 2 * 18Mb scsi u160 10000rpm drives (1 of each of the above – never used in wrappers [backup for raid])

5 * coolermaster cool drives

1 * scsi cd/rw hp

1 * floppy

akasa round cables (various)

zalman fans (various)

2 * 256mb sticks of ddr ram

My colocated servers seem to have stopped responding, rang the datacenter Dedipower and they looked into it.

There response was

Hi Paul,

It appeared that there was no activity on the NIC within your server. We replaced the netowrk cable with a new one and it appears everything is working again.

Please let me know if you are having any more problems.

We are sorry for any inconvenience, this is a very rare occurence.

was that the one from the panel?? Or the one between some of the machines in the farm???

Hi Paul,

This was the cable from the server to the switch. Not the cross-over between the two machines.

Cheers,
Gary
