What's with the HP driver anyway. I don't have an HP printer but do use (recommended) HP driver for it (Laser 5). I just went to an NT box and although I could print from it two days ago, after switching it to my Win95 machine and printing a few pages, I could not get it to print anything from NT.
What gives........VFP 6.0 loaded on both machines. I did uninstall and reinstall the driver to no avail.
