Still some problem persists......... The ppd file for the adobe distiller which is using here to create the .ps file cannot handle A5 prints. The hospital bills and registration forms are needed to be printed in A5 format. So the printer always gets jammed.
I just edited the ppd file and entered some options for A5. I want to check it tomorrow...... Is there any alternate way....??
