Hi,
Since no one has answered. I'll suggest somethings I would try. I have
no idea if they will work since I don't have either printer. First after
you installed the print updates did you remove and reinstall the printer.
This would insure that your printers would reflect the updates. Next
When you said you only get one line per page It sounds like the printer
is not doing a carriage return. On some printers this was a choice on
the printer setup. I do not remember where. Have you tried printing
the various types of test pages and have you checked to make sure all
print cables are firmly seated. The last has caused me more grief than
I care to admit it seems that just when you install something new somehow
the cable gets bumped and you spend hours trying to find the problem
before you check the cables. Finally if none of this works there is
a mailing list for lprng that deals specifically with printing issues
where you can get help.
Good Luck
Linda Hanigan
