Did you apply the 4.1.9 firmware update ? I did and have occasional static noise and worse, it has made Classic SoundJam unusable due to this . When will we get an EQ for iTunes ? GGGRRRR !!
What app are you printing from ? What printer are you printing to ? In 10.0.4 from Classic I had make sure print in foreground was selected or I got a similar problem. 10.1 doesn't seem to suffer from this. More details please.
hell no ! That would be suicide ! I can't find my membership details so maybe it's something else (That would be heavy , Steve Jobs turning up with heavies from Cupertino :-) )
