Hewlett Packard Printer

Having some issue with a printer that I purchased this week.

HP Photosmart C4599

Have installed fully with the supplied disc and in addition checked for updated drivers on the HP website.

The printer will print word/pdf files from my documents. Is selective over images that it will print from my documents.

With regard to trying to print web pages, the printer will spool paper in and the 'operating' light will flash and after approximately 4-5 minutes it will push the paper through with a strip of (the top-) half text across the top of the page...

Any hints or advice?

TIA :D
