Richard,

First of all, congratulations on being able to keep an eleven year old printer running.

The Windows 2000/XP PostScript driver does still support PostScript Level 1. There is indeed an option for setting this, but if you are using the proper PPD for the printer with the driver, this is unchangeable and set at PostScript language level �1.�

You mention that you get �errors� printing the �test page.� Could you be more explicit as to what those �errors� are? Are you getting a PostScript error handler message printed out or displayed on your Mac? If so, what is the contents of that message? If not, enable the error handler in the driver. Unless we know more about what the �errors� are, there is not much we can suggest that would be helpful.

- Dov
