The PCL factor tends to point directly to the printer drivers... PCL code should exist only in the printer output stream and is only put into the printer output by the printer driver itself, not the app doing the printing. Not sure about all of the printers you list, but think several of them are fairly old, and at least one, the 2100, the latest direct drivers are from 2004, so, I would consider them suspect. You might consider trying the "universal Print Driver" for PCL6 from the page at http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=14914&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=25469&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=228 If there is PCL code in the output sent by the app to the _printer driver_ there is a mistake somewhere along the line. I can't conceive of any app itself generating PCL in the printer output unless that app is running custom code designed to send to and in order to manually control a pcl printer. In the case that an app needs to do this, the output should not go through a printer driver, but be sent raw directly to the printer, normally sent directly to the port that the printer is connected to. A related issue (apparently not yours) recently, tcpip "network printers" connected directly to a network connection have become more common and, since the only way to get to a network printer is via a printer driver, this may create similar problems. In the case of mozilla, I would expect that the only time this might happen would be if a pcl _printer output file_ is opened by mozilla that already contains PCL code and then "printed" rather than downloaded and redirected to the printer. Looking forward to a url to see this in action. Beverly Howard
