I have a small home network that contains 3 machines
Linux 2.4.5
Win98
Max OS 9.1
I have Samba and netatalk set up for file-sharing.
I am setting up printing on an HP842C using apsfilter.
I can print from all three machines, however. If I print an image
(.jpg e.g.) from the Win98 machine it comes out black and white. The
same image prints in color from both the Mac and the Linux machines.
If I create a text document with colored text the colored text comes
out properly.
I have tried several PS drivers on the Win98 machine and I have tried
printing from several applications.
Any Ideas?
Regards,
Jim

How is this printer connected to the network (which machine, if any, hosts it)?

Windows is broken? Have you tried HP's own drivers for this printer, that
always just works for me.

The printer is connected to the Linux machine /dev/lp0 and is set up
using apsfilter.

What I ended up doing is making a second printer queue for use by
Windows that doesn't use a filter and using HP's driver. I don't
really like this solution but for a small network, it works.
