"I always get the LOAD LETTER error. Whether I set the paper size to A4 or LETTER at the HPLJ4SI's console, I am always prompt to LOAD LETTER whenever I dispatch a print job (under Win31). I have to hit the printer's CONTINUE button before the print job can start. This will "hang" down there putting all the subsequent print jobs on hold indefinately. "LOAD LETTER means that the printer currently contains A4 paper (or it has detected the paper is in an A4 tray) and your application has asked for Letter paper (as you have noticed). I don't see the problem," There is a "problem" which I have witnessed many times under Windows applicatuons. Documents sometimes default to "Letter" if prepared by one user who's using one printer driver (eg Dataproducts) and sends it to someone else who is using a different printer driver (eg. HP). This often happens when documents are exchanged via eMail, It always pays to check page settings in your Windows application before printing if you got the document from elsewhere.... This is especially a problem with MS Word (all versions). Peter Dwyer
