how are you printing asci?
cat (file) > /dev/lp0 ?
check that printtool has the correct port set.

have you used this printer with a previous linux dist'?

I'm trying to setup a HP Deskjet 400 printer for my RH 5.2 box. I've
looked at a lot of resources on the WWW and understood that my printer is
"fully" supported. Right now I can print only ASCII files. But I'm unable
to print postscript files. I did use the printtool to select the
appropriate printer from the list of choices and I did try changing
several other options available in printtool without any success. Is there
anything else that needs to be done to get it working?
