Hello Barry, > It does look like the HPLIP driver is causing the problem. It certainly seems to be. Although the thread meantioned below also throws suspicion on ghostscript. After some poking around (Google, HPLIP support site [which is a real PITA to navigate]) I managed to find this thread; https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/578920 Which offers a workaround. It worked for me, but I'm not sure whether it will for you as the symptoms aren't the same (black o/p instead of yellow/cream). Here's what to do: Edit; /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstopdf Change; PS2PDF_OPTIONS="$PS2PS_OPTIONS -dColorImageFilter=/FlateEncode \ -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dUseCIEColor" to; PS2PDF_OPTIONS="$PS2PS_OPTIONS -dColorImageFilter=/FlateEncode \ -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer" It worked for me. No doubt, at the next upgrade, things will get changed back but hopefully, the bug will be fixed before that. -- Regards _ / ) "The blindingly obvious is / _)rad never immediately apparent" You destroyed my confidence, you broke my nerve Nervous Wreck - Radio Stars
