Dell 1100 Printer - disable printer status window?

Basq · 2006-07-14 09:10:48

Got this printer and everytime i send a document to it to be printer, i get a status window saying how much ink is left in the cartridge, how many pages i#m printing etc. Any ideas on how to disable this? Quite irritating to say the least. Thanks in advance!

Uninstall printer and just install driver from device manager. I find it a pain in the ass 2.

Yep. Its the full HP software that is installed when all is needed is the driver. Although I think there is a way to disable it. Open the toolbox and go to preferences. Untick all of the warnings/errors. I think. Been a while since I used one.
