Yes, Windows also has problems with these CPU's being too fast There is a problem with shut down on windows, (abit off topic) Anyway what you can do is update your printer drivers, and slow down your printer port. From memory you should be able to go to Control panel /settings/system and double click in Ports and change the speed settings there. from what i have read the problem is that the computer is now sending theb data too fast and the printer is tooo slow, but definetly update the printer drivers and check the epson site for this problem Regards, Daniel Skilleter _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
