Des,
>Thanks doug but have already tried generic drivers (hp550c) but result is that print is quite slow. need proper driver. know that win2000 solves prob - but no good to win98 users. it seems to be a prob only with win98.
Hmm.. I'm not sure what to recommend for you at this point other than get another printer. <g>
Good luck!
Best,
DD
