This is probably an FAQ, but I've gone through the Printing-HOWTO and
couldn't solve it...

I have an HP deskjet-400 printer, but am unable to print to it.  If
I just send ascii to the printer device I get gobbledygook (not just
staircase effect or missing form-feeds).  I tried using ghostscript,
but that doesn't have drivers for the 400 and doesn't work when I try 
other HP deskjet drivers.

Anyone else had this problem?

Danny Yee.
