Hello Tom.

After two whole days of 'Googling' surfing the net, 'phoning Apple Help line, you Sir have conquered where others have failed. I am in your debt, I have for the first time been able to start printing. HOORAH!!

I followed the last url link that you put in your reply, problem sorted.

Thank-you.

Kind Regards.

Brian.

ps, only had the iPad2 for a week, now I really enjoy it!
