For three years or more my photosmart 2710 has worked fine. I've had it hooked up to a Mac PPC G5 running OSX 10.4.11. After unplugging and replugging the power three times it is currently working. Before that it gave me flashing On,Copy,Scan,Fax,and Photo lights and a different error message over a blue screen each time. The first was-
error Oxb9811103 with a line about a half-inch down with 165:hw_interupt_hwv2.0 underneath. So I unplugged and replugged and it gave me blue with-error:0x847f1731...half inch down, line and underneath just- 1:
Unplugged and replugged and this time it worked! I did three scans and half-way through the third it stopped, gave me flashing lights and- Error:0x887ff570...nothing underneath. So I can make it work but not without lots of swearing and frustration. I've got brand new ink cartridges and they are correct HP. Semi-full Reset doesn't seem to matter. Unplugging power from unit and wall doesn't seem to matter. Each time I have to unplug and replug many times until it's happy and then I can do my jobs and they come out just fine.
