epsonlq is equated to toshiba in modes.mf. modes.mf, on my system lives in /usr/local/teTeX/texmf/metafont/misc which, I think is default for the teTeX distribution. All you need to do is search through modes.mf for `360' and pick one that works. Find modes.mf, find a 360dpi that works and plug this into your dvips and xdvi config files. You should also equate "localfont:=<what ever you pick>" at the bottom of the modes.mf file. I use the `nechi' definition to drive an Epson AP3260 and it works well. -- Jay On Thu, 31 Jul 1997, Nathan Dorfman wrote: ->texconfig's `modes' for xdvi and dvips don't include "epsonc," the driver ->for Epson LQ printers.
