Hi

I have a two box server client nfs setup here at home. Both are 10.1 and it
does the same on both.

It rejects HP glossy and Kodak glossy photo paper. I just tried it with Epson
photo paper and ironically it works fine. I have over 100 sheets of the Kodak
and really want to get this sorted. The Epson paper is really expensive in
comparison.

Thanks for your patience.

Steve.
