We have EMTEX v3.0 running on our Netware 3.11 network.  Emtex prints fine to a
HPIII laserjet, but falls over talking to a Panasonic KX-P4450.  The page
layout comes out O.K. but each character is garbage.  Sometimes it gets a word
or line right.

The 4450 is supposed to emulate HP laserjet+, so the same dvihplj driver should
(!!!) work.  We have printed successfully to a Panasonic kx_p4450i, which
emulates a HP LaserJet SeriesII.

Is there a switch that I have missed in the DVIDRV manual ??
I suspect it is a Panasonic problem, (the 4450 has several known bugs), and if
so, is the only real difference between the 4450 and 4450i, the EPROMs ?
Has anyone got a 4450 driver ?

Many Thanks


Andy Faid, A.K.A Joe Network  (ha!)
