Junk Character Printer Issue

The printer dose not have anything to do with the problem.
It just prints what its told to.
Since it receives a print job in a language it doesn't understand, it spits out garbage.
The problem is somewhere else.

Switching Issue

If you are using an Interface-switching device, remove it.
Connect your computer directly to your printer, and then try again.

Port Issue 

Maybe there is a damaged printer port or you are using a parallel port.
You either replace it or use the correct port which you can check from the Device Manager.
Make sure that the printer is not connected to the same port that is also the printer to the port only.

Driver Issue

Check if the correct printer driver is chosen.
Try to reinstall or update the driver.

Cable Issue

Remove the cable from the printer and then reinsert it or maybe there is a loose or damaged cable, replace the cable.

Mack sure that the printer and then the printer cable is not to long .

We recommend that you use a USB cable that is no longer than 2 meters ( 6.5 feet ).

OS TROUBLESHOOTING PART 5

Windows Boot Manager (BOOTMGR)

Windows Boot Manager (BOOTMGR) is a small piece of software, called a boot manager, that's loaded from the Volume boot code, which is part of the Volume boot recod.

BOOTMGR helps your Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista Operating system start.

Where Is Windows Boot Manager (BOOTMGR) Located?

Configuration data required for BOOTMGR can be found in the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) store, a registry-like database that replaced the boot.ini file used in older versions of Windows like Windows vista.

If you don't have a System Reserved partition, BOOTMGR is probably located on your primary drive, which is usually C.

Windows 8 Startup Repair

Windows 8 comes with some powerful system recovery and repair tools. The process for accessing these tools and running a Startup Repair is similar to XP and Windows 7.

1. Place your Windows 8 DVD or USB drive into your computer
2. Restart your computer and the Windows 8 Setup screen should appear.
3. Click Repair your computer.
4. On the Troubleshoot menu, select Advanced Options.
5. Select Automatic Repair from the list of options.
6. Your PC will run a diagnostic to determine what issues need repair.
7. Once it finds your issue, it will attempt to repair BOOTMGR.
8. As with Windows XP and Windows 7, your PC may restart several times during this process. This is normal and nothing to worry about.
