Sometimes, it is all too much for the limited RAM (16MB, manufacturer's default; "5.6MB available") installed on it. Then the printer may hang forever[*], with its "activity" light blinking. It is possible that this is your problem, since you are printing photos. I should install a supplementary 64MB module, but am not sure what to put in (and HP's own RAM upgrades are hideously expensive)
Kingston do a couple of modules that are compatible with the 1320.
KTH-LJ4100/128 and KTH-LJ4100/64 for 128MB and 64MB respectively
Not many people will hold them in stock but prices would be in the region of £30 for the 128MB part and £20 for the 64
BTW as per many of the low end/consumer grade HP printers, the original 16MB module is socketed but should not be removed as this also contains the flash for the printers firmware..therefore there is a maximum of 144MB using the secondary socket. On the original 1300 series the factory ram was soldered in so you can't make this mistake.
Thanks, Wayne, I'll try to follow that up! Ted.
