The first thing I do is to test the driver on a remote Windows print server after unchecking the 'enable advanced print features' box. This force the printer to use RAW printing only. I've found that some drivers only work with EMF printing. Other than that it gets pretty hard to definitely determine a driver bug in the registry data. Basically comes down to comparing bits in the PrinterData registry values between a Samba printer and a local printer object using the same driver. cheers, jerry ===================================================================== Alleviating the pain of Windows(tm) ------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ----- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "I never saved anything for the swim back."
