  I posted a message regarding this problem a few weeks ago and it either 
  didn't make it to the net or it was too stupid a question to merit a 
  response.

  I hope it's the former.

  I'm having problems printing from Compaq OS/2 1.1 rev B.  I'm using an
  Epson LQ-850 and have not been able to get so much as a line feed from the
  printer. 

  I've tried using both IBMNULL and IBM4201 printer drivers with the same
  results; shortly after sending the print job to the spooler I receive an
  error telling me that my printer is not on (exact error number forgotton).

  I've tried disabling the spooler altogether with no luck.  I know the
  printer driver is responsible for initializing the printer; does this mean
  I need the correct Epson driver to get any output at all??  If so, will the
  IBM 1.2 version of OS/2 printer drivers work with Compaq 1.1 ??  
  
  Compaq tells me they hope to ship their version of 1.2 in the second 
  quarter; in the meantime I have an operating system incapable of printing.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  P.S. Of course everything works fine if I boot DOS.
