I have found MY problems! In order to the assembly programs from ftp sites, first, makesure that you set the transfer type to Image, with the binary command in ftp. Then, make sure that when you kermit it to your HP, and if you use kermit to get onto your PC, to use IMAGE mode, switch i. On top of this, you may have to make sure that the file is the proper length before sending it to the HP. OH, and the HP must be set to binary, in the setup menu. This worked for me. -Ken ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | _ , __ _ _ | "It's green . . ." | | ' ) / / ) // // | Mr. Scott | | /-< _ ____ /--< __ . . ____ _ // // | | | / ) | | ===============================================================================
