   Partial success: the file imports fine, and lucide doesn't crash any    
   more when trying to print through the printer.   
   However, it doesn't print yet.   
   There are two strange things:   
   1)The "Job properties" in the printer driver tab doesn't open up.   
   2)The printer selection menu of the os/2 applications never shows the    
   the "pscript.HP laserjet 2055" that I have selected and shows in the    
   printer driver tab, but any driver that had been associate with the    
   printer previously. So, if I change the driver to ibmnull and then back    
   to the new driver, the new driver will be shown in the printer driver    
   tab of the printer, but the application will still use ibmnull.

   ok, I will go that way (I already have an object for the same printer    
   configured via LPRPORT). I only though that cups was going to become the    
   standard print system in eCS, and tried to experiment with it.   
      
      
   Thanks again
