Thank you for sharing your experience, Gary! The man I spoke w/ @ Softwood had never heard of the problem, and had no suggestions. (For the record, I'm *NOT* flogging SW, just reporting.) : First, make sure that the printer is set to the proper defaults (no skip : perf, Epson emualtion, 0 left margin, 85 right margin, etc). I assume you mean the DIP switches that configure the printer? I can only set margins in the driver prefs. 0 & 85, huh? *That*'s certainly one I'd never have guessed.... : ...I thought I should be using 'skip perf' as a default : because I use continuous paper. Nope! Let FW set that for you by setting : 'continuos' in the printer prefs portion of FW. my primary is single-sheet, so no sweat. : Then, read the manual real good on edit size vs print size. I had this all : screwed up? Somehow I had them backwards or something, I think? Been a long : time ago now. Hmmm...I'll check into this. : Next make sure that you have the right printer driver. I am using the : PanaPrefs set-up printer prefs by Wolfe Faust. That works better for me : than the WorkBench EpsonQ driver does. Curious; does anyone know if Wolf's Canon driver will drive if the BJ is in Epson emulation? Thanks again for your input!
