When I want to print from the a web page I get this error on the HP LaserJet
4000TN printer:  40 EIO 2 Bad Transmission

When I try to print from Konqueror or Netscape 4.78 it will print my pages with
no errors.

I have checked the settings on the printer and my computer and they are correct
for printing to a network computer using TCP/IP.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.File
2.Print
3.Print

or

1. CTRL
2. P
3. Print

Actual Results:  Printer would start blinking about a 40 EIO 2 Bad Transmission

Expected Results:  Been able to send the print job with no transmission errors.
I get this too.  Very frustrating.  We have four HP printers on JetDirect
queues.  Mozilla will print to two of them (both color LaserJet 4550DN's).  It
will not print to the B&W printers -- LasterJet 5M and LaserJet 4100N.  When
printing to both of these, I get the EIO transmission errors that the reporter
mentions.  This happens in both the browser and mail, build 2002020415.

If I save the file as .ps, and then print it, it will also fail to print.  It
looks like there is something wrong with the .ps file Mozilla is generating. 
Ghostview does display the .ps file OK.

In earlier builds of Mozilla, I believe that text pages printed OK, but any
pages with graphics did not.  I'm enclosing a testcase .ps file which
demonstrates the problem.

Don/Boris, any ideas on this one?
