I am wondering if there isn't an IRQ conflict with the printer and the
modem.  I setup a new modem in com 4 and put it on IRQ 7.  It worked
fine until I tried to print, then I got a error message.  I can't
remember want the message was but I instantly realized what I had
done, and felt pretty damn foolish!

Anyway, check your IRQ's, it couldn't hurt?
