	The problem is that Windows is generating a PCL header to set the LaserJet into PostScript mode. The automatic print filter has a problem "correctly" identifying this as "PostScript", because of this. So the output says "[LaserJet Data]" because it does not know how to parse LaserJet data, only plain text, images (of various formats), and PostScript. The fix is to set Windows to use a generic PostScript driver, NOT an HP-printer PostScript driver (as most of them will include this PCL header to switch it to PostScript). You might try using a more generic PostScript printer driver, like the Apple LaserWriter II NT Driver. address-suppressed
