  1. Running XP pro. Its just a A3 laser b & w printer - 2 trays + duplex. The message stays displayed so the printer does not go into sleep mode. From what I can gather on the forum blogs it seems to be a common issue. Printer is about 3 years old and cost about £750 at the time - no other problems until now. Following on from your driver suggestion came across this: http://driverplex.com/wp-content/upload ... 4wodgUhp0w Is it safe to run, or could that result in more worms?
  2. Lost me already Stan, which one
  3. Anyone know how to deal with an error message I have on a FS-6950DN that says: 0150:0016688 Been onto various blog sites seems to be firmware issue but can't find how to deal with it. If anyone does know, please be gentle with me, IT is not my strong point by far and in the same week my old faithfull HP Deskjet 930C gave up the ghost I'm printerless....
  4. My kind of road - turn up the volume - taken before the Nismo was added Excuse the grunts from the camerawoman Anyone going to Wales soon
  5. Now that is service, but then I am coming to expect nothing less from Alex - top man And noting that on at least two new threads in the last couple of days I noticed he has offered tchnical solutions/advice to members that I am sure has proved invaluable.
  6. +1 - cheaper and easier just to get an M3. They have more power and torque and are in a region where FI or NA its going to cost you a lot of money to keep up. FI will get you to levels where you can beat them easily though But it is not just about power/torque. There is no doubt an M3 is a bloody good car, but everyone knows about those whereas with the ZED they offer not only the rarity factor but as many informed testers had said, the overall driving experience is just so rewarding and you are in a true GT sports car. Simply wanting to be a boy racer and outdrag someone (on the road) is pretty pointless to me and will inevitably attract the wrong attention at some time, or worse.... But if that is your way then NOS seems the answer for the traffic light gran prix. Edit: snap Fiddy
  7. Is that meaning, you take particular care of your nuts but as for the rest ......
  8. No, but: I have got a similar issue with my reversing sensors - one of the supply wires or the control unit itself is at fault in my case - I need to find time to get an electrian to see he can do a wiring by-pass, if it is possible rather than buy a replacement unit. If on cleaning the sensors the problem persists identify if all 4 sensors are working - lean over from the sides and cover each in turn (with ign on/reverse engaged) - the tone will change - if it dosen't on one, that sensor can be checked by carefully easing it out of the bumper and you should find a connection about 6 inches along the supply wire. Disconnect and swop with another sensor that is working, which will then tell you if it is the sensor or the supply. It does seem the reversing sensors are only covered by a 12 month warranty. And a complete change may mean bumper off to get all the wiring through But hopefuly it is dirt/polish on the sensor that is easily resolved
  9. Sorry Wide thats not something i normally do. We will be watching him, Wide but as he has slapped his own wrist this time we won't be locking him up just yet

    mpg??

    As I said before, if economy driving is what you like doing fine but I really do think you are missing what a ZED is all about, now you tell us you do a lot of your driving arouind 3am when the roads will be comparably deserted, and the mobile cash machines are tucked up in bed should you accidentally press the loud pedal a little too hard
  11. +1 Got to be a lot easier than wading through pages of emails, that you would also need to do every day to meet your objective.
  12. Without wishing to to add to your troubles I would want the steering checked - in fact the whole front suspension geometry may be affected given what you have said - get it to a specialist IMO. And yes as the guys have said, get the evidence - take a camera and scale measure to show the size/depth of the hole. Maybe you have legal protection on your insurance to help or are in the RAC/AA - check out if they can help you get your money back for the repairs that might add to quite bit Good luck

  17. some did 2.5k miles
  18. Its a straight swop - OEM new are said to be around £650 from Nissan ('y' pipe back) but with the better aftermarket options out there not sure how many people pay their prices
  19. I just can't help smiling about the "givememorepower" username and this is the result Sorry
  20. What pop you been on tonight Stan - Walbertonio has been around since May and with a 190 posts so I think he is fairly established now
  21. Are you talking wheel bearings? Might just wish to confirm in case someone has just the thing

    mpg??

    Little doubt the UK tank size is 80 litres and it seems many JDMs may also be the same size although suggestions that some are down to 60 litres (BONSAI spec sheets). For Dblock to get 560-600 miles to a tank, using say 75 litres, that is around 36 miles to the gallon. I have no doubt that if I drove around as slowly as possible I could get that figure as I have just seen 31.5 mpg on the 600 odd mile drive back from Scotland - mainly motorway and averaging 58mph bearing in mind some hold-ups on the way. But the ZED is such a wonderful drive I cannot see how anyone can fully enjoy its capabilities and average over 25 mpg - it just does not add up. But hey, if thats the pleasure you get from a ZED then good luck to you but I do feel you are really missing what driving a ZED is all about
  23. Great news - my first ZED was a blade 2004 UK model - had such a great impact on me I splashed out on present one new in December 2006 Enjoy
  24. time is running out - see updates on first page
  25. No Stan - only ended up being a flash - too public - got withdrawal symptons
