FIVE Separator Pages???

[aroostook]

This is probably a really simple question to answer but...I have a user that ends up having FIVE separator pages print per document/print job. I want just ONE per print job. I've tried multiple programs, as well as all of the standard separator pages found in the system32 directory.

Your help is greatly appreciated!

I can't really find anything in there explaining why I'd be getting *FIVE* separator pages... I see that \E makes your printer eject a page, but pcl.sep (for example) only uses ONE \E. So...why am I getting *five*, then? *confused*

Is it related to just the one printer or do you see this happening across many printers?

Just for information this is a copy of my pcl.sep

\
\H1B\L%-12345X@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=PCL
\H1B\L&l1T\0
\M\B\S\N\U
\U\LJob : \I
\U\LDate: \D
\U\LTime: \T
\E

Yeah, whaddya know, it just prints 1 sep page on a different printer (had to borrow one).

The print device I'm trying to get to work right is a HP Color LJ 5550. Is this a problem with the print device, then?

Maybe the "HP Color LJ 5550" is in cohorts with your printer paper supplier?

I suppose the next thing to try is uninstalling that printer, checking for any driver updates, and re-installing the printer, printer software and drivers.
