    Looking for a specific printer (can pick up single business check)

    One of my customers has a HP 8600 that he has been using for yeears. He wants to save money as he was always able to be able to print a single 8.5x3.5 check (from sheets of 3)

    newer printers can't process the paper, always jam. I know some printers have a single paper input but I'm not sure it can still internally take something with a 3.5" height

    anyone of you have any ideas? Know of any models?

      LOL goddamn. I guess because he's getting more desperate now I forgot about that post

      and 4x6 does not work. The height is 3.5 and most printers just are not built to run that

        At one point I had a line printer that could only print tractor feed paper. I had a plastic sheet-thing that one could put in a single sheet of paper and it would pull that paper through as if it were tractor feed. You may need to do such for the check and make the software align to the plastic. Not convenient but it worked.

        I still do something similar to scraps of toner transfer paper so I don't need to waste the whole sheet. Except I use transparent tape to tape it on a full 8½x11" letter sheet.

          Anycubic Photon 5.5 3D printer 25Q32 flashrom dump needed
          by re-atari
          Hello all, as the title says, I'm very much in need of a valid firmware dump of a Anycubic Photon 5.5 3D resin printer. It's stored in a Winbond 25Q32, so it's 4Mbyte.

          Here's a little background for my request. A few weeks ago I bought this 3D printer from a guy who had moved on to a PLA printer. I got it at a vey reasonable price, as it was in a defective state. The seller told me that he had experienced a power failure during a firmware upgrade, after which the printer appeared to be dead. He thought the firmware was corrupted in such a way that the printer was now bricked. As he...

          Brother HL-2140 laser printer: printer error (solved)
          by Curious808
          SOLVED. I removed the printer in settings, replugged and let it reinstall and it worked this time.

          Brother HL-2140 laser printer
          Windows 10

          Attempt to print and immediately get a Windows pop-up saying "Error printing". The document appears in the printer queue window with Status "Error-printing".

          Turned off printer. Unplugged, waited, replugged. Ran the Windows troubleshooter. Removed and reinserted toner cartridge. Checked for paper jam. No printer error lights. Reinstalled driver. Restarted the Spooler service. Rebooted...

          HP officeJet 8012e ... A printer update will be installed to fix this problem
          by Artefil
          Hi,
          One of the partner I'm mostly working with, brought his Officejet 8012e, facing a problem I'm failing finding a solution.
          On the Officejet 8012e, there's only one USB connector on the back, for connecting the printer to a computer.
          The screen displays the following message :
          "a problem has occured with one of the printer's critical system files. A printer update will be installed to fix this problem"
          But even if the printer is connected through wifi to the network, nothings happen, and the printer stays idle for days.

          Have you ever...

          Need dump for 58mm Thermal Printer
          by прямо
          Hi all,

          a friend gave me this printer because it's no longer working.

          It powers on, but won't do a self-test print and when connected via USB to Windows, Device Manager says No Printer Attached under USB Hubs tree.

          The red light doesn't blink either with no paper inside.

          I think the firmware maybe corrupted. If someone has a similar printer and can provide a firmware dump, I really appreciate it.

          Printer model: Panda PRJ-58U

          Printing 8.5x4 (single)check
          by Uranium-235
          One of my main customers prints business checks, which is fine for the first two on a page, but the last one is a pain in the ass. So many printers will jam with this check (including the bottom perforation), it's 8.5x4

          His current printer, which he had to go through four (buy and return), found one that will, an HP 8600 that is getting old.

          I literally used a PDF print to get the quickbooks single print, and go to staples, and after hooking to the wifi for windows auto driver download (which sometimes I could not and had to downoad the fucking driver) with some...
