When printing a postscript file with ghostscript, the printer will print properly for a bit of the page, then start printing garbage. (The printer is a Deskjet 890C if that matters at all). The old driver: device lpt0 at isa? port? tty irq 7 vector lptintr works well. -- Zach Heilig -- zach@gaffaneys.com Real Programs don't use shared text.
