窶｢ The wrong HP DeskJet printer model can be selected in the Chooser (printer/driver mismatch) without notification until the first document is printed. Be sure to select the correct HP QuickDraw GX driver for the HP printer model to which you are printing.
窶｢ Frequent "Out of Memory" alerts may occur when trying to print documents with complex graphics (scanned images or graphics with blended or graduated fills) on Macintosh computers with 8 MB of RAM. Upgrading to 12 MB of RAM or more is recommended.
窶｢ Envelopes will not print correctly if the document has been formatted in the "Page Setup" window of a QuickDraw GX application for 'any printer', or for a non-HP printer. Be sure to select your HP DeskJet 850C printer in the "Format for:" field in the "Page Setup" dialog box in QuickDraw GX applications.
窶｢ All QuickDraw GX applications have a "Manual Paper Feed" option in the "Print" dialog box, but HP printers do not have a manual feed option. If you choose the "Manual Paper Feed" option in a QuickDraw GX "Print" dialog box for an HP DeskJet 850C printer, the job will still print using the paper tray.
窶｢ If you have used previous HP printer drivers, you may have folders on your system you will no longer need. To delete these folders:
1. Open the System Folder.
2. Locate the HP Folder, the HP Fonts folder, and/or the DeskJet
Fonts folder (under System 7, the HP folder will be in the
Preferences folder in the System folder).
3. Drag the folders to the Trash and choose "Empty Trash" from the
"Special" menu.
窶｢ If a system crash occurs while a document is printing on your HP DeskJet 850C printer, turn your printer off and then on again before restarting your Macintosh.
QuickDraw GX 1.0.1 Notes
窶｢ The error "Floating Point Co processor not Installed" may randomly occur in System 7.5 with QuickDraw GX installed.

窶｢ Alias documents will not print if you "drag&drop" them to a desktop printer icon. Contact Apple for more information.
窶｢ Before printing SimpleText documents from QuickDraw GX: If you enter a page number in the "From" box and leave the "To" box blank, a zero-page print job shows up in the queue for a moment, and then disappears without printing. (The print job should include the page entered in the "From" box through the end of the document.) Contact Apple for more information.
窶｢ Non-numeric characters are sometimes accepted in the "Enlargement/Reduction" box in the QuickDraw GX "Page Setup" dialog box. Contact Apple for more information.
窶｢ When printing a SimpleText document, sometimes the "Print" dialog status says, 窶弃rinting [document] to窶ｦ窶 without listing a printer. This is due to a dialog clipping problem. Contact Apple for more information.
窶｢ The SimpleText Print window does not default to printing 窶廣ll窶 pages when printing Word 5.1a documents. You must manually change the range by clicking the radio button for Print "All". Contact Microsoft for more information.
窶｢ The number of copies listed in the QuickDraw GX print queue is not always displayed properly. When a multiple copy print job is listed in the lower portion of the QuickDraw GX print queue and there isn窶冲 enough room to display the entire number, the number will be truncated. When the print job moves up to the top of the print queue, all or part of the first digit of the number of copies will be clipped. Contact Apple for more information.
窶｢ Some documents containing bitmapped images may cause a system crash when trying to print using QuickDraw GX. If this occurs, try printing the document using QuickDraw. See "Disabling QuickDraw GX". Contact Apple for latest version of QuickDraw GX.
窶｢ Directory damage may occur after a system crash. If this occurs, use Apple's Disk First Aid邃｢ to repair the directory.
窶｢ Attempting to print a Finder window that contains labeled (highlighted) icons may cause a system crash. You must restart your Macintosh.
