Have a client who will not replace their Laserjet IID printer. It is attached to a Small Business Server NT 4. When printing trhough XP (networked printer) often the second page gets an error and has lots of ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ lines appearing on the page when continued to print. It also more slow than normal. The same documents print fine from a Win 95 and a win 2000 PC on the same network. Any ideas ??
 
Have you tried printing a test page from the XP machine?
What about the drivers on the xp machine? Is the printer config on the XP machine the same as the 2000 or 95 machine?

Test page prints fine and all settings appear to be the same.
 
What application are you using to print on the XP machine ?

It appears to me fixed now using HP Laserjet Series II drivers instead of IID. Thanks for all the ideas.
