Hey Jennifer,
  Since you are using redhat, goto the printtool and under the filters
section there is a checkbox for selecting to stop stair stepping. check
that, save the config, restart lpd.

When he prints from Netscape, the page is printed properly, but when he prints a text file, it stair-steps.  I gave him my printcap and tarred my whole lp directory and he replaced his own.  Same problem.  It works great on mine, but his stair-steps.  He uses KDE and if he prints from any of his KDE applications he still has this problem. I'm not familiar with KDE as I run Gnome pretty much exclusively.  Can anyone help?
