Using a lot of ink?

Just bought a HP Envy 4500 - I do a lot of color printing as I make greeting cards.  Ink color shows already half used and I printed only a dozen pages A4.

I was wondering why it seems to go down so fast.  Any tips or advice?

Thanks for your reply. I think that my mistake was able with the settings. Using the best impression seems to use a lot of ink. No doubt plans instant ink.

  • With the help of a lot of ink.

    HP officejet 6500 a model CN557A windows 7 pro 64 bit is no changes to the operating system or anything.

    I have this printer for about a year now, and so far I have printed total 415 pages in this time and I have gone through 1 set of 4 black cartridges and color.  I NOT print something weird like art or pictures or whatever it is that takes a lot of color or black.  Just your basic text reports and an occasional recipe on the net.

    Print any black text is disabled and I don't have gray.

    Given that I have don't print not that many, I wonder if it might be just dry out on me, because my last black cartridge did not last long at all, I think that the printer sat for almost a month before I used the ink.   And sometimes he sits a month sometimes a week, I do print everyday.

    Any ideas on why I use a lot (or I am) and how to solve this problem.

    Hi, have you tried to use a printmode as Fastdraft? Also with cartridges size XL can help.

  • Firefox using a lot of CPU (90% + sometimes)

    I use firefox version 26.0 on a Macbook Pro OS X 10.6.8 version and I run these http://i.imgur.com/Co4NlGQ.png and http://i.imgur.com/Co4NlGQ.png extensions. I'm also using these plugins http://i.imgur.com/ZO55Lmq and http://i.imgur.com/IapcvJY and I have disabled all plugins, and which has not helped because the CPU usage always fluctuated close to 10% all the way up to 100% usage.

    I checked to see if the plugins are up to date and I updated one of them, but the most recent update of Java Applet Plugin works only with Maverick, which I did not. QuickTime said it is not up-to-date, but when I checked the software update on my Mac, it says there is no update available.

    Image of the plugins I checked to see if they were updated http://i.imgur.com/fPuV8vD and http://i.imgur.com/7Uwp5vX and http://i.imgur.com/N0Cz9Tp http://i.imgur.com/6FIwVTv aaand.

    Here is a picture of my activity monitor (I got all plugins disabled here) http://i.imgur.com/j6xUudo . As you can see, the CPU usage is 99.6%, which is huge given only, I opened a webpage (reddit) and was not running videos and others. And here's a picture of my activity with more information http://imgur.com/zuY5iMu monitor. The real Mem can go all the way up to 2 GB, which is a bit worrying.

    I tried to reset Firefox, which did not help, I tried from FF in safe mode, which did not help, and I even tried to reinstall FF, that did not help. I also tried disabling "using hardware acceleration", restarted my computer, and the issue was not fixed. I used CCleaner to clear temporary files and other, but it won't do any good.

    I really want to be able to use Firefox, because I'm starting to be wary of Chrome, but if FF only use a lot of memory and CPU, I'm not sure that I can continue to use this browser.

    I feel I hit dead ends on everything I tried, so I'm starting to lose hope. Did someone help any idea or suggestion as to what I should try / do?

    I have never seen that, perhaps, simply a reset will fix all the problems.

    NOTE that RESET WILL NOT:

    • Delete bookmarks, saved passwords, Form Data, history, tabs open (if you use Firefox 25 and more).

    A discount to ZERO will BE:

    • Delete the Addons, Custom Prefs, Configurations of toolbar, search engine settings

    More on reset (and how to achieve it) can be found here.

    If you want to be safer, you can save your profile (its likely will not be necessary)

  • Solution for Google Chrome (Helper) by using a lot of ram and cpu on mac os x

    Hi all

    Some people have several tabs of google chrome, and it's using a lot of RAM. It also causes the fan go crazy sometimes. I looked for a solution for centuries, but no solution has allowed, until I stumbled upon the simple solution to use a google chrome extension that hibernates unused tabs. The problem has now completely disappeared.

    There are a few different extensions that Hibernate unused tabs, but the only extension which has enough options setting to do what I want, is called "The Great Suspender".

    You can set the time, after which the Hibernate (sleep) tab. The tab automatically resumes when it focuses on, (i.e., you don't need to then also click on a specific button). And the tabs of the extended day before will remain in hibernation after you restart the computer.

    There are many other parameters that can be changed. (After you have made changes, don't forget to click the 'save changes' button.)

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks for the tip.

  • Flash uses a lot of CPU

    I don't know when this started, but recently whenever I visit Web sites that use some or a lot of Flash, Firefox slows down completely. When I went in my task manager, I saw that FlashPlayerPlugin.exe was using a lot of CPU (109, 396 k to be exact). Actually, there are two open process. In the past I've never seen these before in Task Manager, but now it is a problem. Any ideas?

    Nevermind, I found a solution. It seems that there is a new feature implemented by Flash called Protected Mode. To disable it, you must go to C:\WINDOWS\Macromed\Flash then open a text called mms.cfg file and add the following text: ProtectedMode = 0. To disable.

  • Flash player 11.3.300.262 is using a lot of memory

    Since the update flash a few days ago, that the plugin uses a lot more memory than usual. He uses normally between 150 MB to 200 MB, but now I've seen him use up to 900 MB.

    I noticed that the memory use increases of 5 MB or more, when you browse through a video until I stop the plugin because of the ridiculous amount of memory used.

    Please check if all your plugins are up to date. To do this, go to the Mozilla Plugin Check site.

    Once you are there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
    If you see in the list of plugins that have a yellow button to update or a red button update now , please put to update these immediately.

    To do this, click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps in the installation process.

  • I bought an iphone 5 c less than 2 months ago, and even if I don't use a lot of storage, I still almost nothing GB, what it can be?

    I bought an iphone 5 c less than 2 months ago, and even if I don't use a lot of storage, I still almost nothing GB, what it can be?

    Apps, music, images, even the contacts you add etc - all of these things take a valuable storage capacity on your phone.

    Your backup device, delete it and then restore from the backup, maybe this will help free up space.

  • the process Svchost.exe to netsvcs uses a lot of memory (~ 600 MB) and 100% cpu

    I have windows xp edition sp3 family. I hit the power button to hibernate the pc but I think an automatice update was running.  Pc crashes when windows resumes after hibernation. I forced a re-boot, but now the svchost.exe to netsvcs process uses a lot of RAM and CPU. I have a Dell Dimension 8250 with 1 GB of RAM. Svchost uses > 600 MB of memory and 100% of the CPU unless I have stop the DHCP service. When I stop DHCP the svchost stops using CPU and memory affected slowly decreases to about 150 MB and remains at this level. But without DHCP I do have access to the network.

    After installing SP3 recently I started having some weird problems, as I lost my printer and had to re - install the software. Also noticed that after re-booting and desktop appears completely empty, the screen turns white and the taskbar at the bottom will appear empty for about 30 seconds, then reappears. PC seems to be more slow tha before installing SP3.

    I've tried everything. Nothing stopped the svchost to chew all the memory, virtual memory and time processor. Had to re - install windows xp.

  • I would like to know what svchost processes I can disable and how. Some of them use a lot of memory on an older machine making it almost useless .___Thank you, ___Ray

    Some of the processes running in the Task Manager use a lot of memory in an old machine (laptop), and the amount of additional memory that can be installed is very limited.
    I would like to disable the process I do not always use or need and speed up things a bit.

    http://aumha.org/a/loads.htm - which loads at startup?
    http://www.theeldergeek.com/services_guide.htm
    http://www.blackviper.com

    Some reasons for the slow pace of the computer:

    1. computer has not been maintained - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Maintenance

    2. the computer is infected with the malware - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

    3. the disk is too full. Remove useless stuff, uninstall unused programs. Do not forget to save!
    http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Backing_Up

    4. flaky third party software. Toolbars and modules are particularly guilty in this area. Uninstall toolbars (Google, Yahoo, ISP brand, etc) and look at what modules are in use in your browser (s).

    5. computer has too many unnecessary programs/processes running in the background. Manage your Startup:

    For XP - How to troubleshoot using the Msconfig in Windows XP utility - http://support.microsoft.com/?id=310560
    The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx

    6. the user runs an inflated/invasive such as Norton and McAfee antivirus program. Replace it with a better program. I recommend NOD32 (commercial) or Avast (free). Avira is also good, but the free version has an unpleasant reminder screen (Google for instructions on how to disable it). The user can also run several real-time antivirus/firewall/security programs.

    7. the user has installed new programs that are processor and/or memory-intensive (Photoshop, AutoCAD, Mathmatica or similar) and does not have the power of the equipment.

    8 drive fails and is in PIO Mode. It's very much slow (like being in 1985). See Hans-Georg Michna here information - http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10

  • I use a lot my daily life of the computer. I hear CLICKING noises that are not caused by me! Who and where are the clicks noises coming from? Is there a ROOTKIT, someone somewhere romoting access my internet service?

    Is there a Rootkit, or someone somewhere romoting access my internet service?  I use my computer for several hours every day.

    This year I went through a CRASH my system in September due to my memory stick in my digital camera INFECT my computer.  I bought a new computer that's how it was.  I'm also a MODEL all CIS although I am learning.  Since then, I've downloaded the AMOUNTS of VIRUS protection.  Of course, I didn't know it was my stick of memory from my digital camera which has infected my computer, I only understood what a month ago.  So, you guessed it, even my brand new computer became infected soon enough.  I recently did a RESTORE on it, which has erased everything.

    My point is, I had about 4 people from remote access my computer to try to resolve the various problems with it several times last year.  These people are found in various places: Argentina, India, Phillippians.  I found it interesting.  Whenever they take control of my computer from their remote location.  Once the session is completed, they finished their access.

    Why what I hear clicking then I use my computer?  As I wrote this, I heard it about five times.  What is it?  Why gives me the feeling that someone is using my internet.  Talk about paranoia, makes me think that they can get in my email when I look at my bank account etc.  Is there a possibility that this actually happens or not?

    My son has a laptop that he uses a lot with the internet service that I use.  His laptop using WI - FI.  It uses the X - Box live wi - fi.  These things are going at the same time while I use my internet connection.  Would this be causing clicks?  I would like to know if there is violation of privacy occurring and/or and "OUT OF BOUNDS" type of question, where someone from a remote location using my Comcast service internet and maybe even can see confidential things on my personal login.

    Thank you, WG

    I used my mouse that you asked and he makes no noise whatsoever (it's a laser wireless mouse) - well it makes a rattling noise when I click with the right button or left mouse on an icon as it should, but nothing outstanding at all - is the click made by the mouse when you click on an icon or a hyperlink that you speak?  And you say he doesn't mouse, but from somewhere inside the computer?

    Someone smart enough to gain access to your system to be able to do the things you're afraid of that happening is smart enough to make sure that the computer does not have a noise when it occurs to give the fact that it happens.  In addition, access would be through the network connection so let's do a test.  Remove the connection from the system (I mean disconnect the cable or ethernet connection or remove the wireless card or go to network connections and sharing and disable every single network, you will find (don'tdelete - just disable their) or better yet, just remove the connection of the moden provided by the ISP, so there is NO WAY) a connection could get through.  Then see if clicks continues.  If so, it has antyhing to come with your internet connection or a pirate in your accounts. If it does not go far, it is possible that some network devices is originally of the problem (or that you are currently connected to a web site that generates the rattling noise, but I seriously doubt that this is a sign that everybody won that kind of access to your system (even if it could be malware as I mentioned earlier).

    I honestly have no clue what inside the computer could cause this noise that often and that constantly. It is not a problem of software for me.  I still think you should try the suggestions I made in my previous post (especially the search for malware and do a clean boot).

    If you this concerned and you have tried everything that has been recommended, I stick a reputable computer repair shop and ask them to check it out. If it occurs when they use the computer, they should be able to find the source even if they remove all to do.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
