So I finaly get around to setting my printer (HP Deskjet 693c), the test page prints ok but when I tried to print a webpage (http://www.google.com for example)I get the input box followed by the top left of the "G" in the "Google" image magnified about 500 times. The print preview looks fine and printing from Netscape 4.x does not have this problem.

I also tested this with a Epson C80. Since the results were the same I don't beleive this is a driver issue. I also searched bugzilla for "printing" but did not find anyting that addressed the issue.

Any suggestions ???

Well, I haven't encountered that in particular, however a couple of things it is worthwhile checking is:

- under File, Print my printer is listed as Postscript/default
- under Properties, make sure the paper size selected makes sense. If you're in North America you're probably using 8.5 x 11" paper. In Europe and other strictly metric areas, A4 is the more common size.
