I spoke with my friend this morning and read him the text of your message. He's tried it, but unfortunately is still getting the "check printer cable" message. At this point, he's kind of at a loss, and I'm not much help, because my experience is in the IBM PC – MS DOS arena, not with Amigas. We do figure that the parallel port itself is OK and that the cable connection is good, because the printer does it's little "wake up" jerk when the system is booted. Other than moving the printer driver, is there anything else that you can think of that he might have to do? My total ignorance of Amigas and AmigaDOS may be showing, but is there any need to logically connect print output to the parallel port, or something like that? Any other thoughts – or possible ways to help further diagnose the problem? I do really appreciate your help and your prompt response. Thanks! gcb
