[K12OSN] Printing heqq

[Doug Simpson]

This didn't have any effect on this printer.

Frustrating.  .. .

I worry everytime I attempt to rint anything because if that thing jams, 
it is weeks before I get it working again. . . And after doing so much 
stuff, I never know exactly what it is that gets it going again.
