    I have Parallels 7 installed on a Imac running Snow Leopard Os 10.7
    I have installed Windows XP and just updated to service pack 2
    I have installed bonjour Print services
    There are 2 printers hooked up: HP 7600 series Photoprinter on this iMac and a HP 6990 all in one on another imac
    They are shared and show up in Windows XP just fine.
    The Printers show up and are selectable and it uses the HP 8500 -PS driver

    I have Corel office 3 suite installed and it works fine. The main program used is Wordperfect

    Everything works fine over all.

    The issues is printing. When we print the font always comes up as a system font - or pica or something. No matter what font is chosen in WP it is still the same font printed. This happens in Notepad as well.

    I have searched and read and read and have not found an answer...

    Any thoughts or a pointer on where I can look?
    Thanks

    Yes we were able to solve the issue over all. You Need to actually update and use the drives in windows in Windows XP even though all the help files communicate that you dont need to do that.

    Our issue now is that we cant get more than one copy to print at a time....
