Thanks David, That solves one of my problems. I set up the roll paper printer. I'm all set to go now, but I can't get the printer to stop flashing the paper feed light. It thinks there's no paper in it. When I push the paper feed button, it tries to run the whole roll through. I've tried releasing the bale and then setting it back to the first position. That didn't work. I tried pushing the roll paper button on the far left of the three buttons. That didn't work. Any thoughts? Paul On Dec 2, 2006, at 1:06 AM, David Mann wrote:
