Printer won't stay installed

[Judy]

I have a HP DeskJet 820Cse. I have installed it many ways
and can get it to work for a day or two. Then it stops
printing. Do I need a new printer?

Do one more COMPLETE uninstall and reinstall to see if we can get it to
'stick'.

If it's a parallel port printer (and not a USB connected one) ensure that
the LPT port is set to EPP in the BIOS.
