ODD PRINTER OPERATION

by ron vought . Updated 24 years, 8 months ago

Our local network uses a combination of LED lasers and inkjet printers, which are shared across the network. Our OS is Windows 2K Pro. Here’s the problem: each user can print locally to their personal Okidata 6e printer and have generally good results, however, when the same document is sent to an identical printer across the network to another workstation, and the document is generally “garbage.” Users can send the same document to any one of the inkjet printers across the network, and the document(s) are fine. What gives? Any ideas? Is this a driver problem? If so, then shouldn’t the local printout be garbage as well? Okidata does not make an updated Win2K driver for this printer and I am “stuck” with the generic driver for the OKI supplied by Windows 2K.
