Is there any way to fix this?

HI,

PDFCreator uses a virtual Postscript printer, does printing from Putty to any other Postscript printer work? Ghostscript errors are always a bit hard to read, but it looks like what is created during the print job might not be valid Postscript.

Best regards,

Robin

Hello. Yes, printing to local HP M425dn works fine.

Hi,

HP M425dn supports PCL, does the temporary .ps file in %temp%\PDFCreator\spool have a Postscript header (starts with %!PS-Adobe-x.x)? To get hold of the file, you will need to disable automatic saving in PDFCreator, print something from Putty to the PDFCreator printer and check the contents of the temp folder before pressing the save button in the PDFCreator GUI.

Best regards

Robin
