Hi,

I have a HP 670 C local printer and have problems with printing plain text
or ascii files ?

Using the printer configuration tool in the control panel I choose HP 550
/6xx C ....
I run succesfully the tests for Postscritpt page , but when i try the ASCII
test page ....nothing happen ...

I have been able also to print for instance HOWTO documents from opening
them in Netscape  ....

but if I try a simple :

# lpr example.txt

the printer blinks, an I get a page with some random 4 or  5 letters ?

What may be the trouble here ?
