Hi all,

I just bought a used Hewlett-Packard DeskJet Plus for my Amiga 2000 to 
replace my old printer, and I'm trying to find out why it doesn't print:

 - I'm using the HP_DeskJet printer driver, not the HP_DeskJet+.  If anyone
   knows where to find it ... ?
 - The self-test goes through the motions but doesn't print anything
   (blank sheet), even after priming it twice.  I suspect that a new
   print cartridge will solve this.
 - The Big problem is that when I try to print from Final Writer v2, it
   gives the message that there's "printer trouble."  The cable and port
   worked fine with the old printer (a Panasonic KX-P1108?).

My next idea is to find out what the correct dipswitch settings are for 
this printer/computer combo.  Can anyone e-mail me the dipswitch config 
or other info?  Thanks in advance.
