My 8/105 workstation is connected (via serial A) to an HP LaserJet IIIp printer using a "Turboscript III" postscript emulation cartridge. This cartridge is supposedly 100% compatible with Level 1 Adobe postscript. I've tried a variety of PrintManager and printcap settings, but can't seem to get the printer to work. I did get one page printed from mail o.k., but couldn't repeat it, and had no luck printing from other applications. I've used printcaps for LJIII, LaserWriter, etc., checked the usage notes, NextAnswers and FAQs, all to no avail. Sometimes the printer will give me an "Err: 34, flushing" error, which I don't understand. I did try saving some output as EPS, transferred it to my PC, and printed it from my PC with no problems. However this workaround won't work very well on a regular basis. Does anyone have any clue what might be wrong? Any suggested modifications to printcap or PrintManager? Does anyone have experience with this printer and a different font cartridge? What cartridge do you use? Could this be a cartridge problem? Please respond directly by mail. Thanks in advance for your advice. -- ********************************************************************* Jim Goes + InterNet: goes@chimera.sph.umn.edu Health Management & Policy + (NeXTmail welcome!)
