Hi! Has anybody had any luck printing with ShapeShifter? I have SS v3.1 on my A3000 OS 3.1, set up the printer port to go to the parallel.device, where my HP 500C Deskjet printer resides. When I try to print from the Mac side, using a DeskWriter Serial driver, I get a "Printer Is Not Responding" requester. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Do I need a different driver on the Mac? I tried a DeskJet driver, but that seems to error out the Mac and eventually freeze the system. Thanks. — Dave

Dave- Are you using the HPDJ driver? Mostly works for me, though I'm having some seriously annoying margin problems that no one else seems to share. You can ftp it from… err… the address is in the Shapeshifter docs in the questions section I believe. Mr. Zombie

Paul — Thanks for the pointer. I'll look for "HPDJ" over on that LONG FTP site. <g> See ya! — Dave
