Ok, I've managed to print to my HPDeskjet 694c attached to a Solaris 8 box
running samba 2.2.2 from Win98.  Problem is with the left margin, there are
these little lines (garbage) running down the 1st column on the left side
of the page.  Also, when I print a page from Word 97, the whole page doesn't
print (about 95% of it) and starts a little too far down the page.  Printing
was perfect with Samba 2.0.7 so it did work before.

Can someone help me?

ps: I created the printer deskjet on solaris as follows:

lpadmin -p deskjet -I Simple,ESC
enable deskjet
accept deskjet


Thanks a lot.
