HP is fine, but in I set it to PostScript, when I try to print, ON-LINE/WAITING display then IDLE displays. In the manual it suggests Non-PostScript driver is installed. I don't understand that, if the PostScript emulation already built in the printer, WHY DO I NEED A POSTSCRIPT DRIVER???? Do I have to do some magics with the "printcap" file??? any ideas, thuy
