Hi everyone, Hopefully someone out there will have the wisdom that I currently lack: I have set up my HP DeskJet 400 with the Printtool utility. I have chosen the correct Filter, know that it is set-up on the correct port (lp0). When I try and print anything from Netscape I get this on the printout: Unrecoverable error:rangecheck in .putdeviceprops (1488)op_array(486)0x817b0cc:E When I try something like cat foo.txt > /dev/lp0 It prints the first line, then the second, with stair stepping effect, and then just feeds blandk pages through the printer. I have ensured that I have enabled the fix stair stepping in the printtool utility. Any help would be appreciated (BTW below is my Printcap file. Regards, Andrew *** Contents of Princap *** lp:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :mx#0:\ :sh:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:\ :if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter: *** end ***
