Last time I used my HP 340 (or 350 - I can't remember) printer with my  
MP2100 I
found that if I printed my agenda via IrDA that the bottom line was  
printed on
the second page if the agenda was large enough - but by connecting the  
Newton
Print Pack and printing the same agenda over the cable it would all  
fit on one
page. You have to select a different driver on the Newt when changing  
between
wired and IrDA so I guess the paper margins were different and I never  
found a
way of redefining them for the IrDA driver.

I ended up just taking my NPP cable with me (it was less bulky than  
the printer!

Incidentally I was able to get a replacement battery pack for the  
printer at the
time, but there must have been some fault with the pack or the printer  
as it
completely discharged after a few hours, even if it was left turned  
off. :( I
worked around that one by keeping a small inverter in my car. :)

Cheers, Julian.
