Blank Sheet when Printing

[wesleycrusher]

I recently installed an Imac for an employee. The computer is running Panther and is currently printing to a Lexmark S1650 printer via Appletalk. The printer is plugged directly into the network and is given an IP address.

The problem is whenever she prints, a blank sheet is "printed" as well. It seems to not be dependent upon which software program she is printing from. I have seen it happen under Lotus Notes 6 and Office X products. I have heard of someone having this same issue on a Lexmark S1625 but was unable to find a solution for correcting it.

Any suggestions or leads would be greatly appreciated.

I'm shooting from the hip here but have you looked at the print menu?

I seem to remember that network printers can print a separator page to facilitate different users distinguishing their print job from everybody else's in the printer output tray.

Maybe with your client's application, the separator page is blank?

Usually, the print menu gives you the option to print (deliver) the separator page before, after or not at all.
