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.
