I seem to be having this problem from a variety of apps. It has occurred thus far with Konqueror, Kmail, KWrite, Opera, and with various files. I have been using .xsession-errors as a test file. I thought I had the latest version of TurboPrint, but I did not. So, I installed their latest "turboprint-1.84-1.i386.rpm". Now it seems that in the latest version they have decided to have a TurboPrint banner ad print on each and every page that you print.....obscuring part of your document! It states: "This is TurboPrint FreeEdition. To print without this logo, please purchase a license key at www.turboprint.de" This would occur in previous versions when you made a choice of high quality output, but now it is appearing in the default setup. :-( I will re-install the older version (1.83-1). I am very frustrated right now, and I am going for a walk. I have been trying to sort this out for hours now, and my anxiety level is higher than it should be. (my ink is running low too;-)) I will resume this at a later time. Thank you Anne for your assistance....you are a living treasure indeed. :-) Regards. --Angus "Let us not look back in anger or forward in fear, but around in awareness." -- James Thurber *********************************************** ~Linux Powered by Mandrake 9.1~ *********************************************** ~Reg.
