I have a HP 5si on an NT 4.0 network. My client is printing from pagemaker 6.5 and needs to print 11x17. I've tried installing the 5si PS driver on the server and that didn't work. HELP!!!!
Thanks

Hello,
Make sure Pagemaker is closed.
Check the computer or the network for the ppd for this printer. Once you find it make a copy of it.
Now on the computer search for RSRC.
It is a folder in Pagemaker.
Open the RSRC folder.
Open the usenglsh folder.
Open the PPD4 folder.
Now paste a copy of the ppd into this folder.
Now go back to the usenglsh folder.
Look for the pm65ppd.cnf.
Right click and delete this cnf file.
Close everything and restart Pagemaker.
Now you should be able to see the correct page size when you print because you now have the ppd for Pagemaker to use.
Good luck.
