HP Deskjet 600 from 1995 printing on Windows 11! (Presentation /“slow” print mode)

The laptop running win 11 was a thrift find. I had to do an install “hack” to get windows 11 to run on this laptop (Hp G62 from 2010 w/ ssd).

LG Oven F9 Error Easy Temporary Fix (Use broil, wait, then use bake)
Переглядів 7164 місяці тому
Our LG gas range from 2016 started to give an F9 error when preheating the oven intermittently. Suddenly, it got worse and would stop preheating at 125. Temporary Fix: 1.) Set oven to Broil on HI. 2.) Wait about 10 minutes for oven to get hot, around 350 or whatever temp you want. (Might want to use oven thermometer). 3.) Cancel Broil 4.) Press Bake and set desired temperature.

    I love vintage Hewlett Packard deskjet printers, generous ink cartridge capacities, no chips or firmware killing off a usable cartridge or stopping you using expired ones and their robust build quality. A new HP printer breaks as soon as it's out the box. I had a deskjet 400 in the mid 1990s and it used the green topped version of them cartridges. If you wanted to print colour you had to swap out the black for a colour which would make black by mixing the cyan, magenta and yellow heavily as a substitute. You had a protective case for the cartridge while not in use, you had a change cartridge button on the printer. Those era of ink cartridges both blue and green top are still produced officially by HP in small numbers. The 51604A for HP's 1984 thinkjet is still even produced official hp oem. I have from 2008 an HP officejet K7100 A3 printer, I bought it new and sealed in 2012 on ebay. It's definitely one of HP's last decent printers.

    will it run with the belt off? Belts that are too tight may help burn out the motor but that seems unlikely because that's a pretty heavy duty motor. Also, look for any kind of micro or leaf switch that may disengage for safety with all the (or one) cover off. I just got one. The belt is loose but it's working and I'm going to leave it alone. What good is it really - I only intend to use it to address envelopes. a word processor, sadly, has made these great old Machines obsolete.

    The dial on both machines is for the temperature. Clearly, the Oster was turned up too high to start. Over browned in the middle not done on the edges. The Cuisinart was set very close to the correct temp. To me, in my humble opinion, they both worked well. Just need to get the right heat setting.

    • @exploreandthriftwithmario
      @exploreandthriftwithmario 2 роки тому

      Thank you for the comment. Yes. The knob was more in the middle, between min and max, it was not too high or too low. The Farberware waffle maker that I have been using for years has the same knob setup as the Oster and produces uneven results just like the brand new Oster does, no matter what setting it is on since it also does not flip. Both non-flip machines produce uneven results. The only non-flip waffle maker that I have had good luck with was a 80's Toastmaster Belgian Waffle Maker that I purchased at an Estate Sale back in 2010. It always produced even results, but unfortunately ended up replacing it with the Farberware in 2013. So I was trying to find something that cooked the same way as that old Toastmaster. Hope this helps!

      I'd avoid doing that. But sure, it's possible. Just patch to Catalina first with Dosdude1's patcher (and then use OpenCore bootloader if the code Dosdude1's patcher displays when booting annoys you). Then, just make sure you don't run anything that requires a Metal GPU or it will crash. For example, the latest versions of GarageBand and Logic do require Metal, so use older versions (in fact use the latest version that can work on High Sierra to be safer).
