Re: GIF or JPEG printing still struggling

Yes that's the same issue I was having. I got around that by converting PDF and then converting the PDF back to a userascii spool file. I know you mentioned in another thread that it doesn't work likely because it's a dell printer emulating Hp. So you really need to convert to pcl. There's a thread on experts exchange if you want to read up. Go to google and search for aix PDF to pcl.

If I use Spoolmail to send a PDF to my email, it looks fine. If I print, I
get a blank page.

Interested in ANY more ideas. I created a simple GIF with the letter A on
it.

We don't have any HP printers but the DELL printer I'm testing with
emulates HP

Here is my printer description:
