Hey, i have noticed a problem with the HP DeskJat 950C Series printer in Windows NT, lot of times when you try to print to it, it will hang the program, and sometime hang Windows NT(i mean to the point you have to unplug it with the ATX from MB.) HP's web site said to try using the drivers for HP DeskJet 895 Series printers, but it sometime will not communicate with that driver. So far the only solution that seems to work is to add a generic HP DeskJet driver, that will only allow B/W printing, but does not lock up. Any other solutions would be great.

Hi,
Did you try this link? Has diff drivers for each of the Windows versions.
Hope this helps you out.

You may also want to try the drivers for the HP850. It works just the same.
We use 950 and NTs all the time, and so far we have not had any problems with the drivers, but we also use standard workstation configurations, so it is probably not real comparable.
