Ed,,

SWAGs gladly accepted. *g*

No, the only protocols is TCP/IP.

However, as I type I'm downloading the latest HP W2K drivers. I'll try these first and if they don't work I'll try something else.

Thanks for your help Ed.

Best,

DD


>>Hi folks,

>>I'm having a horrible time getting my HP 4M printer to behave itself on my new W2K system.

>>There are two problems, *perhaps* related, but I'm not sure and if any of you have had this issue arise I'd sure appreciate hearing what you've learned.

>>Here's the system
>>
>>1) W2K Professional - used as my workstation
>>2) W2K Server - Dual Pentium - My File Server
>>3) Apple Centris 650 w/ Apple O/S 7.5
>>4) HP LaserJet 4M (the 'M' indicates Postscript capable)
>>
>>It seems that I just cannot get the combination of my workstation to settle down. Sometimes I can print and sometimes I get nasty postscript error, multiple pages all the same and so forth. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, etc and I'm pretty much at my wit's end.
>>
>>The second problem is that for some reason I cannot get the Apple to recognize the HP via I/P or AppleTalk. I'm thinking that perhaps I might need a new HP driver but am at something of a loss as to where and how to get it.
>>
>>I'd sure appreciate any help you might be able to provide.

>Doug, a SWAG - is the DLT protocol installed? Is it possible that the printer is only advertising itself over DLT?
