Subject: PPR: HP problems

I have successfully installed PPR v. 1.32 on my Linux 2.0.36 box and
everything goes right for me except fo a couple of problems:

1) Sometimes when i try to spool to an HP2500CP plotter (postscript lev.3) ,
printing stops and i got a postscript error ; looking at it with "ppop log
HP-2500-15" i have :

WARNING: Requested medium is not listed in the media database
%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: estore ]%%
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%

2) I got an Apple's LaserWriter 8500 with two folder named Standard (with A3
paper) and Lower (with A4 paper) ; the problem is that selecting "automatic"
, Standard , or Lower folder the printer always choose the A4.
I tried to automatically add bins as described in the http manual but
nothing happens : the ppad show command shows:
Printer name: testprint
Comment: <none>
Interface: atalk
Address: "LaserWriter 8500:LaseWriter@SERVER"
Options:
JobBreak: signal
Feedback: True
Codes: UNKNOWN
PPDFile: LaserWriter8500.ppd
Flags: no no (banners discouraged, trailers discouraged)
Bins:
OutputOrder: ppd
Charge: none
Alert frequency: 0 (never send alerts)
Alert method: none
Alert address: none
Default filter options: level=1 colour=False
Switchset macro: none

Can you help me solving these two problems ?
Thanks bye
