One just takes longer to start the printjob than the other, but both will spew out a bad page prior to the first page of the job. It is not consistant with all documents printed, but the data printed on the page appears to be partial printer commands (and it is stairstepped).

USB lpt and NOPRIME
I have had the problem listed in the article below for years (4.x and 5.x). I have been unable to use my Lexmark Optra 312 (USB) with FreeBSD (w/cups) because there is so often a page of "trash" printed before a print job begins. This ONLY happens on FreeBSD and not on Linux 2.4 (w/cups). I have posted about it here before, but never a response, but now I have found this nearly three year old reference to the very same problem and I was hoping somebody in the know might understand how a fix could be made to the FreeBSD lpt or ulpt driver. http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2001/02/08/0019.html Thanks in advance, Tom Veldhouse ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
