The printers I work with (LJ 4000, LJ 4050, CLJ 4500, and DesignJet 800) have all happily printed nearly every postscript file I've thrown at them. Ironically, the only problems I've run into (aside from bad Postscript that no interpreter would take) have been from HP's PS drivers for the 4500. >From my experience with the computers, I'd say that HP makes very good printers that are well worth the money. Their drivers are another story, and I've had far more problems with them. If you can, stick with the PCL drivers under Windows. In my experience, HP's PCL drivers tend to be better debugged and, in many cases, produce documents that print faster than they would from the postscript drivers. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.
