Thanks for all the good suggestions and different ways to attack the issue. I will be trying them out over the weekend. I have downloaded and installed all the ghostscript etc files but the web browser method seems attractive as it seem simple. It would probably also work on both a Windows (XP and Vista) as well as my Ubunto netbook. One other question. When you need to set the value of "printer name" where does one find the "printer name" in windows XP. Is it the name given to the printer in the Windows XP printer control panel or the Port Name in the printers Advanced properties menu. Regards..Dave
