Machine has SP2 Loaded and is running Office 97. The
laserjet 6P is connected to LPT1 and shared. Prior to SP2
the machine worked properly. During the Installation SP2
changed some of the UNI*.DLL and pcl5eres.dll to ones
dated 4 Aug 2004.

Since the update to SP2 on the local machine, when forms
are opened (in Word 97, 2k or XP, 2003) which contain
embedded graphics (logo's) on any machine with access to
the printer (Win 2K or XP Pro) the print insists on going
to Tray 1, the manual paper feed. Setting the Printer to
select Tray 2 manually before printing has no effect.

Plain documents (without graphics) automatically select
tray 2 and operate as they always have.

I've tried uninstalling the drivers and re-installing the
printer locally and recreating the printer share. I've
tried using the HP Laserjet 4 driver instead of the 6's
PCL driver all to no avail.

Any thoughts welcome.
Regards
Peter
