I don't remember seeing this problem on the list. KMail print on screen is clear and most letters are separated. When I print out a mail, some letters, particularly the "t", the "si" and the "sk" combinations are scrunched together with adjoining letters. I am printing to an HP 2200D laserjet. The typeface on screen (and on paper) is a sans-serif font. Even on screen, it is slightly scrunched in spots. "ri" and "ti" and "tt" and "th" are too close together.
Suggestions?

Doug:
I'd suggest going into settings and changing the font to one that your printer has natively. That does the trick for me.

I'm not sure that a Laserjet has any font natively. I went to settings and tried Courier, in a couple of flavors, which almost any printer can handle, and I got a line of garbage followed by two blank pages. This printer should definitely be supported--it can read PostScript. From Windows it will print anything I throw at it, and after a dog's age, it will print SuSE's Firefox images, print and graphic.
I wish Courier worked--it is much easier to read on-screen, for these old and damaged eyes. (That's what I've got this Eudora set up for.)
To remind the reader: Laserjet 2200D.

I don't know about the 2200D, but my Laserjet 5500dtn has 90 pcl fonts and 80 ps fonts built-in. Look in your printer's config and see if you can print a font list.
The garbage you are printing sounds very much like a configuration problem. Are you running CUPS? There appears to be a driver in CUPS for your printer. Try to adjust those settings (like pre-filter, etc) and use the HP driver if available.
good luck Rich

Hi Doug. Your ISP must be the post office. It appears you sent this message on Jan 31, 2003. ;-)
This cheapie computer is hopelessly confused. Every couple of weeks it seems like someone points out that I'm living in the future or the past, and I probably haven't even turned it off in the meantime. This was bought from Fry's. It was available without any M/S os, and the price appeared to be right. However, a friend also bought the same machine, and it totally died after about a month. Just after the waranty was up, of course.
Has anyone had any experience opening up non-standard applications on ports below 1024? I have a situation now that I need to open up port 502 on a custom application, however starting up the app as a root user and opening up the ports on iptables does not seem to do the trick. Below are my iptables rules and a lsof of the app running on 502.
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --sport $unprivports -d $ext_ip --dport 502 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -p tcp ! --syn -s $ext_ip --sport 502 --dport $unprivports -j ACCEPT
listing of my iptables on port 502...
ACCEPT tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 192.168.0.2 tcp spts:1024:65535 dpt:502 state NEW
ACCEPT tcp -- 192.168.0.2 0.0.0.0/0 tcp spt:502 dpts:1024:65535 flags:!0x17/0x02
Below is the lsof on port 502...
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME reciever. 10273 root 3u IPv4 49966 TCP 2-0-168-192.example.com:custom_application (LISTEN)
For some reason I am not able to access this port regardless that the firewall is open on the port. Am I missing anything here? -------------------- Brandon Spruth brandon@xolia.net
