Have you tried your printer on another computer? (Basic question, I know, but we sometimes forget.)
For example, I tried `CUPS + Gutenprint' for my L7500, and the output was pretty bad. I tried many other variants, and `Footmatic/hpijs' was the best (it was apparently the recommended one). How is the printer connected to the computer? I have no experience with laser printers. -- Merciadri Luca See http://www.student.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~merciadri/ I use PGP.
