Hi All: I've been having some printing problems which I thought was due to a program PRINT104.ARC. Now it seems the problem is more systemic. I have an A2000 with an HPIIP hooked up with a standard IBM parallel cable (I tried two other cables, same result). I'm having problems printing ASCII text files (DOC files and C source code). I cannot check by typing "copy <filename> to PAR:", because the Amiga files do not invoke a CR on the printer, thus the left margin moves off page to the right by the second line. Wordperfect (which has its own driver) works like a champ. My graphic printing programs work like a champ. Programs which invoke PRT: seem to cause the problem. The problem is that partway through a file printing, a "System Requester" pops up saying "Check printer and cables". Even "Copy <filename> PRT:" does it. The problem seems to relate in some way to the parameters set in preferences for lines per page and other factors. Could someone with an A2000, WB1.3 and a HPIIP please send me the exact settings they are using from the first preferences page for paper size, spacing, characters per inch, margins, quality, etc. Thanks. – via Whap!
