I selected a section from Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar to print (3 pages). The result "garbage."
Then I decided to export it to an RTF file and print from the saved file, and it printed fine.
I am using Windows 7 and my printer is HP LaserJet P1006.
My Logos 4 version is 4.1 SR-4 (4.10.4.6514).
It would be nice to be able to print directly without the result being garbled.
Print feature needs more work, or did I miss something?
Hi Kokkee
I agree that there seems to be a problem.
I tried to print the "table of alphabets" from the grammar and it wanted to print the same page over and over again!
This shows page 20 of 100 but all of pages 2-100 are the same!
This is on 4.2 Beta 3.
Graham
Yikes! I hope you were able to cancel the printing.
Kokkee Ng:Yikes! I hope you were able to cancel the printing.
I only looked at this in preview - I didn't actually press the print button!
In my case, it looked fine in the preview window, but the output was garbled.

I had the same problem with the same printer. After trying to upgrade the drivers, I could not print at all. In fact my computer would not even recognize my printer any longer. I went out and purchased a new printer (HP 309 g). Now everything works fine, but it was an expense I could had avoided if I had been satisfied with copy and paste into Word.
Soli Deo Gloria,

I tried to print directly with the hp psc 1210 and it worked fine.
It was my secondary printer (inkjet).
It would appear that be some sort of incompatibility problem with laser printers or just some some printers.
Hope they will fix the bug.
Kokkee Ng:Hope they will fix the bug.
To get the attention of Logos you should prefix the thread title with Bug: - you can't edit it now, but i'll create a bug report on the wiki.

Thanks, Dave.
P.S. It seems that I can edit the tag(s)
I notice that HP have a full driver for the LaserJet P1006. Are you 32-bit Windows 7 or 64-bit? Did you load the driver from the HP CD-ROM?
The driver from the CD-ROM is for Vista.
I downloaded the 32-bit Windows driver from HP.

Graham, I created a bug report in PC Beta for this issue.
I tried printing from another resource: this time from " Biblical Hebrew Reference Grammar."
The results were similar: "garbled" in HP 1006 but fine in HP PSC 1210.
I did a few more tests:
First, I downloaded the driver again from the HP website and did an upgrade/repair on the HP 1006. Same results.
Uninstalled drivers and reinstalled afresh the downloaded drivers. Same results.
Discovered that the garbled print-out was only with text (not just Hebrew text, tried printing from NET Bible). In fact, the printout from BHS was fine except for the bibliographical note at the bottom of the page. Tried printing from Infographics "The Ten Plagues of Egypt" - perfect print-out!

Are you using the PCL6 driver or a postscript driver?
Graham Criddle: I tried to print the "table of alphabets" from the grammar and it wanted to print the same page over and over again!
This has been reported to development. Thanks.
Hmmm, how do I find out whether I am using the PCL6 driver or a postscript driver?
In the HP LaserJet P1006 Properties, Advanced tab, it says that the driver is HP LaserJet P1006.
My OS is Windows 7 32-bit.
Below is the file details I downloaded from the HP website and installed in my PC:

Sometimes the model or driver info will include something similar to "PCL 6" or "PS 3" after the printer name. When you choose a printer from within the print dialog in a program, does it list just the one LJ P1006?
