Yes, I'm using the Harmonie 2.0 driver.  Had another curious thing happen
yesterday along the same line.  I program using Micol Advanced Basic (IIGS).
Programs that have worked fine under system 6.0 now also *cut the page short*
under 6.0.1 - Even though my dip switch setting on the DeskJet 500 are set
for the 63 lines/page.  I had to add printer software commands to my programs
to get the DeskJet 500 to print a *full* page.
