I'm using a Seikosha BP9000 printer on a LAN. PC which are using this printer are printing garbage. It prints one line of garbage then goes to a new page and print garbage, repeating the same process.

I did a windows print test page on 2 PCs and the same problem happen.

anyone can advise?

thanks and regards,

Sounds very much like the Printer Drivers have become corrupted so remove the printer and reinstall the drivers on every affected computer. Provided that there is nothing mechanically wrong with the printer that should cure your problem.

Its a emulation problem

This does scream of being driver related. I have seen similar results when sending inkjet commands to a laserjet printer. Sometimes it appears that you get a couple of printed pages followed by LOTS of blanks because the LineFeed is being processes but the CarriageReturn is not. Replace the driver.
