Relative to my problem with printing with 2 printers connected to the PC
Win XP Filepro 5.0.14. I now have both printers working in Windows and
Filepro. However the Filepro printing is being done through PFPRT for
either.
I think the problem may have something to do with the fact that I have both
printers connected to the PC via USB ports.

Try using \\compaq\HPDeskjet
\\compaq\HP Photosmart C4100 **
**This is a windows only printer - See John Esaks replay re Anzio
PrintWizard.
PrintWizard can take the pcl output as you sent to the DeskJet and translate
it automatically for the C-4100.
They also supply an Fp print table which you can use. Check out the Anzio
web site.
PrintWizard is a lot more flexible the supplied RTF program.
