Thanks for that. We've got round it by installing the printer locally
(connected to LPT1:) then reconnecting to the network queue.

XPe terminals
Those HP clients use txt driver even if you select the correct printer
driver on the device. You need to actually install the printer driver
from the HP web site onto the T5700.
I called HP about this a while back and they said that the drivers
included on the T5700 mostly or all txt drivers to keep space
restrictions down.

Subject: [THIN] Trouble printing across the network from HP T5700 XPe
terminals
We have an odd problem with some T5700 terminals we're deploying. They
print
perfectly to local printers but as soon as we try to print across the
network to an LPD or TCP/IP print server (NT queue or JetDirect unit),
prints come out in text mode. It's as if the terminal is determined to
use
the generic/text driver regardless of what we select and what is
indicated
in the print queue. The content of test pages confirms that, with a
driver
name of RASDD.DLL and a data file of TXTONLY.DLL.
Can anyone suggest a reason for this? How do I convince my XPe terminals
to
use the proper driver for network printing?
