On the print dialog window, under the 'Printer Settings' tab, what does it list for
'Printer Name'
*deskjet990c
and 'Printer Model:'?

I use kde and like to use kprinter. It lets me change printer properties (like resolution) for each job. File > Print select 'new printer' for printer name I use 'kprinter' With 'kprinter' selected, select 'setup printer' Command: kprinter --stdin leave ppd file blank be sure to save settings. When you print, print to kprinter. From there you can select the printer, printer properties, set options. Of course, if you don't have have kde and kprinter or just don't want to use it, then I'm sure Patrick can get you where you need to go. Doug

Not really. Before your messages showed up as from '29/10/04', now it's '08/11/04'. Still trailing one month. But it transmits just fine. Regards, -- Andreas Philipp Noema Ltda. Bogotá, D.C. - Colombia

gud luk,
Patrick - It worked! But, trouble is, the printer selection and the settings were the same as before. The only thing that I can see that I did differently this time is that I clicked on the "Save Settings" button. I guess that what I was doing was glancing at whatever settings were there and, since they had not changed, assumed that I didn't need to save the settings if I had not changed them. Anyway, it is working. Thanks very much. Kelly

Well, you're getting there. Now instead of being 31 days off, you've reduced it to 30 days. The easiest way to keep your clock in sync, is to use ntp and connect to an atomic clock. I run ntpd on my desktop system, which keeps it in sync and on my notebook, I can manually call the time server, when connected to the internet.

Patrick - It worked!
good
But, trouble is, the printer selection and the settings were the same as before. The only thing that I can see that I did differently this time is that I clicked on the "Save Settings" button.
But it should say 'HP DeskJet 900 Series' instead of 'Postscript Level 2' and, I believe that that was your problem. If it *doesn't* say 'HP ...' then you will probably have problems the next time.
Thanks very much. Kelly

You're right. It did change from PostScript to HP DeskJet 900 series.
