Hi Andrew,

I had exactly the same problem with my bjc4200. What you have to do is
edit
postscript.cfg  it should look like this when you are finished :

GSDEVICE="Your Printer"

RESOLUTION= "Whatever"
                                                                #COLOR=-d
Bits Per Pixel =3

PAPERSIZE=a4

EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS=""

REVERSE_ORDER=

PS_SEND_EOF=NO

Let me know how it goes....

DAVID
