- I have had this on both versions of FW I use, but it was always
- my fault! The problem lies in that there are too many ways to
- set up what you are sending to the printer.
- Make sure that the page size and orientation for the print output
- settings are EXACTLY the same as the page size and orientation for
- the document settings, watch out for disorientation :^)
- Make sure the edit area and paragraph preferences are legal inside
- the document bounds.
- Normally this always works fine on my LJ111P printing in postscript
- from my A2000, and also from SX32, grins wide.
