I don't remember just how I set it up, but WP will print to a Post-Script printer. I have the HP 2200D LaserJet, and it works fine. Now, I have a problem with WP. I receive a file from a friend that has been converted from Macintosh Word by some program I don't know about. If I open in WP Win, all is fine. If I try to run the file in WP8 for Linux, either WP8 freezes, or the whole machine freezes. the only way out I know is to turn off the machine with the switch. Do you have any insight into this behavior, or how to fix it? --doug On Saturday 26 June 2004 04:41, Andre den Oudsten wrote:
In WP8 for Linux further choice is HP DeskJet 850C, 855C, 1200C and 1600C André

Are there any other printers to choose from? The 900 series would be a better match...

Sorry that I react so late. It's due to some days of holyday. There is 532kB of messages in /var/log/cups/error_log Meanwhile I configured two other queues. So I have:

and the reaction after print command in WP E [25/Jun/2004:11:34:30 +0200] print_job: Unsupported format 'application/octet-stream'!

After printing with PSC2110 gave also 'Error Spool Command' and in /error_log E [25/Jun/2004:12:07:30 +0200] print_job: Unsupported format 'application/octet-stream'! I [25/Jun/2004:12:07:30 +0200] Hint: Do you have the raw file printing rules enabled?
So did the following 3 confogurations. The Passthru PostScript gave no message in WP and in /error_log
I [25/Jun/2004:12:49:03 +0200] Adding start banner page "none" to job 264. I [25/Jun/2004:12:49:03 +0200] Adding end banner page "none" to job 264. I [25/Jun/2004:12:49:03 +0200] Job 264 queued on 'psc2100series' by 'andredo'.
Printing a .RTF file prints directly, but only full lines of random characters.
Hopefully you can do something with these observations.
