>The HP LJ 6 drivers from the Windows CD are a piece of (*&^@#$. I just saw them absolutely hard crash a client machine, to the point where the soft power switch wouldn't even shut the machine down. I deleted the 6 drivers and installed the HP LJ3 instead and it works just fine. You might check the HP website for new drivers.
I don't like the 5 drivers any better - we're using the IIIsi drivers in place of the 5si drivers; you give up very little in terms of capabilities doing this, especially if you're using them as PostScript printers. And I'd be very careful of drivers released by HP. HP has a lousy track record in my experience with printer drivers, causing trouble with lots of apps (not just VFP.) It's usually safer to take the latest HP driver that Microsoft is distributing if at all possible.
