Anyone have any experience with this printing issue?

OK. My printer (HP PSC 1410) has been printing fine for 10 years now, until recently. I just bought some "new" (expired) ink cartridges on eBay trying to save a few bucks. I popped in the color cartridge and left the old black one in there because it still had ink in it. I started printing a cover and everything was going fine; there were no signs of a bad print and the cover was looking great. About a quarter of the way through the printing process, however, I unfolded the little paper tray extender thingy out and the messed up the paper that was printing. I left it alone and it was taking FOREVER (hours) to print. I thought the paper got jammed so I canceled the print job and tried again. The printer has been taking hours to print anything now (even a test page) and the print quality is shit. I've already tried everything HP says to do on their website (changed ink cartridges, power cycled the printer) and it's still the same. Anyone have any ideas of what's going on?

That happen to me with a canon multifunction printer, i had to reset te printer

I had the same problem on an HP printer too. It would slow to a crawl, printing one line then taking a few moments before moving the paper and printing another line. It could take over an hour for each page to print.
I followed the troubleshooting guide for the product on HP's website, which had me download an updated driver. Worked fine after that.

I have the most current driver installed. I think this printer has just finally had it... :(

Have you try to reset the printer like i told you?
The one that i told you it was a canon from the ofice that i work and wi all think the secretary touch somethin in the printer and it star to print slow, but when you use the photocopy it was printing normal, we check everythin and it was ok, so we decided to reset the printer and it work.
