[pchelpers] Re: Back to the drawing board

To do that EG, I would have to installl sp2 (which as I have explained
in the past has affected more than just my printer) which I am loath to
do.  Until ALL IS BROKEN, I think I will stay with the status quo,
leaver sp2 off and have my printer work successfully.   I just "can't be
bothered" with th hassle at present if you can understand my feeling.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
