Comment(by laplace):
> As an example, instead of a StyledEdit page of text with 1 inch margins,
it will actually print the first paragraph over and over down the page
with text cut off by the left and right margins. This is why I wanted to
try the R5 driver.
Do you want to create a new ticket for that and if possible attach the
image of the scanned printed page, and the file used in StyledEdit?
IIRC the Haiku PCL5 driver should be backwards compatible to PCL3, so it
should work with your printer. Last time I tested it was with a HP DeskJet
500 connected to parallel port and in BeOS R5. Unfortunately I don't own a
Haiku compatible printer anymore, so I had no chance to test it in Haiku.
