You are still not giving much in the way of information, and you are |
| 45 |
still getting replies from people that basically say "Well, gee, I dunno |
| 46 |
what the problem is, but try this $RANDOM_MAGIC_SAUCE" |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
It's an exercise in throwing shit at a wall and hoping some of it sticks. |
| 49 |
|

So, it used to work. Now it doesn't work. |
| 51 |
Something changed in between. |
| 52 |
You need to provide the information to find what changed, no-one else |
| 53 |
can. And it doesn't help repeating the error message you get, we already |
| 54 |
know that. |
| 55 |

| 56 |
Start with the short list of three items in my other mail. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
I promise you, and this is important, until you provide that information |
| 59 |
we will all keep going around in circles (unless you hit random pay |
| 60 |
dirt) and your printing will continue to not work. |
