Hi Hiro, I love HP printers. I've never had a bad experience with them. But at the time I bought my current printer (3 years ago), I could not afford an HP 5000 series. The Ricoh AP2610 had just been discontinued, and the dealer I bought it from was auctioning off brand new (not refurbish

Hi Andrew, I'm afraid the problem is not limited to Finale, or even the OS. (Even the printer's test config pages are affected). Selecting "Any Printer" makes no difference. Cheers, - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY On 08 Mar 2007, at 4:07 PM, Andrew Stiller wrote: For whate

Hey Richard, I checked that. Ricoh have not updated their Mac drivers since 2004. I suppose I should check with my old Mac mini to make sure this isn't some kind of MacIntel problem. Cheers, - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY On 08 Mar 2007, at 12:21 PM, Richard Willis wrote:

Hi David, Good idea, but no, fanning the paper makes no appreciable difference. I also tried using a different toner cartridge, just to see, but that also made no difference. Cheers, - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY On 01 Mar 2007, at 4:46 PM, David W. Fenton wrote: On 1 M
