I please need to know now if my printer is just a big paper weight?


I fail to understand what you mean by that and what you need to know, if you just want to get rid of that image error, follow the solution.

The image ( fi ) error went away as soon as I uninstalled Adobe Flash player. I clicked on HP Solution Center. Window popped up saying I don't have the latest version of Adobe Flash player for internet explorer. Had a link to download it. Window popped up saying if I want to change internet explorer as my default browser. Really no I don't want to. Makes no sense to if Adobe got rid of flash player completely. I'd like to find a solution too for all this. If there is no solution...I'm gonna have to go printer shopping. I've got brand new cartridges too. Bummer!

There is nothing to be afraid, where stuff are stored are stored in the windows folders are not really changed, there isn't something that will be messed, especially since they are not essentiall windows components.
