You may or may not have things set up the same, but when this happens on our system, the solutions are:
1. font size - the PCL font size (or pitch or whatever it's called on that specific model of printer) needs to be set to match all the other printers 2. page breaks - the unix page length (defined in the unix printer queue setup) is different from the printer page length - in this case, less. They should be equal. (this assumes you're running on unix) Now, if you're controlling the font size within your programs or drivers, the driver you're using for this printer should match the driver you're using for the other printers (which may not necessarily be the driver that matches the model of this printer). For example, for much of our PCL code, we always tell AIX that our printers are HP LJ3's even if they're 4200's. The AIX driver for the LJ3 works the best with our code (or vice-versa, depending on how you want to look at it). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of KidFromBrooklyn Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 3:23 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] RE: Unidata Printing Question We tried different settings.
