- I guess I should have said a bit more about the above trouble I'm having.
- I need to use the HP Deskjet 550C to do screen dumps. Currently, I have
- only been able to print text. I have tried using the HP LaserJet drivers
- included with AIX, but I only get blank paper back from the printer from
- graphics screens.
-
- What I did was to set the printer = to HP LaserJet III. And configured the
- virtual printer likewise. This failed miserably. Some sent a short
- note saying to set the printer up as "other parallel printer, and to create
- a virual printer for it. But I'm not sure what to set the virtual printer
- to... A walk through of the procedures I might try to get this printer working
- would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
