This could apply to any OS, so here goes. I have a Citizen GSX-230 dot matrix printer. The printer complains vociferously (to the point where it won't print) if you switch the lever to friction-feed (as opposed to tractor-feed), while the tractors are in what it calls "push" position. Citizen's idea is that we remove the tractor unit (containing two shafts and a gear or two), rotate it, and re-install it in the "pull" position. I needed to print on some plain paper a while back, so my wife removed the tractor unit. We couldn't get it back in, but we discovered the printer works mostly OK with it out. Now, we have pinfeed paper and I can't get it in so the gears mesh. Anybody dealt with this or a similar printer, who can give me a tip? -- -eben QebWenE01R@vTerYizUonI.nOetP royalty.mine.nu:81 LIBRA: A big promotion is just around the corner for someone much more talented than you.

Never mind, she fixed it and showed me how.
