Thanks for the advice. I used the ljet4l filter and it seemed to have done the trick. I guess I will have to wait for the filter for the 1100 filter to get release at a later date to have it be more specific for my exact printer. I wish I knew what I was doing so I can write one myself and contr

The Laserjet 1100 is a very new printer and there is no driver written especially for it. The ljet4 or ljet4l filters are probably the closest. There is a site listing ghostscript drivers for various printers , but this does not yet mention the LJ 1100
