    Hallo

    I am running Vista Home Premium SP2. After updating the chipset and Nvidia graphics card, my Canon BJC-1000 will not print. I get a message saying Failed to print. I get the same message when I try to check the nozzle using maintenance. I was able to clean the rollers using maintenance, so there must be communication of some sort. I tried putting in a new cartridge, but the same thing happens. I have deleted the printer and driver and reinstalled them. While trying different things, I have also had a message saying "the active directory domain is currently unavailable"

    Can anyone suggest something I can try?

    Sorry - All I did was switch my printer to the USB port that my mouse is usually in, and it worked!:-D
