No.. it won't hurt, and I sometimes wonder if the software for the G55 is
perhaps a bit.....woppled. I've had to do a reinstall a few times in the
past to resolve other types of printing issues. If this does not fully
resolve the problem then I'll replace the file from the Cabs as you
suggested and see how that goes.

10 others...that is why I didn't really know for sure which might be the
'one' causing the problem. <g>
