I have a problem with printing that needs to be solved quickly.  I hope
someone could help me..

We have written a C/SET/2 program that does GPI printing to the HP LJ3
printer.  The program works fine with the HPLJ3 printer drivers for OS/2
2.0 GA (ie, without the Service Pack, ie, 16-bit GRE).

However, when it is ported to a 2.0 SP system (with the Service pack
applied), it refuses to print.  One program complains that it cannot find
the fonts (the program calls for Helv fonts).  Another program simply
sends the output to the spool and then disappears from there.

What is the problem?  Is it that I would need to get a new printer driver
for the HPLJ3 to work with the Service Pack?  Where can I get them?

Please reply to me direct.

Thanks.
