Ok, we print from a dos program to a hplj1200 . This setup has worked for years. Now when I print from the program it prints 2 pages then the busy light blinks on the printer then nothing comes out. I have: 1)tried a new cable 2)tried a new lpt port 3)checked the irq/resources of the lpt port 4)tried a new printer of the same model 5)tried printing just from the dos prompt(with the same results) 6)replaced spool32.exe and spoolss.dll with the originals from the cab files.
