What aspect of it "won't work"? Or put it another way: what aspect of it _does_
work? What were your results with the HPDJ560C.PRN? What do you want to enable
on the 682C that isn't enabled? Look in the H-P manual: in the back, in the
specifications section, what is listed as the "Printer Command Language" (or
similar)? The 660C says "HP PCL Level 3". I think all DeskJets are pretty much
the same in terms of their instruction set -- but maybe not. If you've got OCR,
scan all the specs into a text file and Email it to me...

Dumb question: you installed it correctly, right? Listed it in SETTINGS.DFL, used
the correct SETP command, dah de dah de dah? VA/NV $SP acknowledges that it is
installed? You're using it correctly, i.e. no PT=numbers or any of that III+ jazz?
We're talking v4.017 here?

Probably not.
