Has anyone gotten Printshop to work on an HPLJII? I don't have any extra memory, only the half Meg that comes with the HPLJII. Printshop has a special installation for Laser printers and I've done all that. But a greeting card won't print - only a couple of lines. My question is, is this normal? Or do I need more memory. Even if Printshop is bitmapped graphics, it seems like I should get more than a few lines with 1/2 Meg. Any help is appreciated. Jim Disbrow disbrow@skipper.dfrf.nasa.gov Brain. Brain.

Printshop cards are *always* a full page of bit mapped graphics. On an HP LaserJet of *any* variety that is more that 1/2 meg even at 75dpi (the lowest resolution). To do *any kind of full page graphics on an HP LaserJet you want at least a meg and 2 megs would be better 8.5x11 @ 300 dpi can easily exceed a meg. -- Leonard Erickson ...!tektronix!reed!percival!bucket!leonard CIS: [70465,203] "I'm all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools.
