Thanks... I can now print text to the printer - two problems: 1) The hp dj870 doesn't complete the page, must need some kind of EOF
2) I can only print text - If I send PS, it is printed as text! I guess this means I really need to be able to use magicfilter - but can I send output from something like dj500c to windows?
