I've been through this recently. Upgrade Printers by downloading the latest release from RISC OS Open. Thanks go to John-Mark Bell who reported............ "This can be found in "all-bin-2007-11-15.zip" from http://riscosopen.co.uk/content/downloads/risc-os-tarballs"; "Note that the !Printers in that zip file is not complete -- you'll need to merge it with an existing !Printers 1.73." Paul Vigay also reported........ "Having said that, I've encountered weird redraw problems with !Printers 1.73 so I've gone back to the previous version to avoid crashing the machine." If you can get this to work only portrait printing in NS is possible - so wide pages are cut off. I think DrawPrint - designed specially for Iyonix users needing NS printing is still probably the best way to go. Good luck and let us know how you get on. Richard.
