Aandi,

Thanks for your help.

What file? A PostScript file? Made with what driver?
A PostScript file (in the MAC format) I found on a webpage. First few line of the file:

!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Title: (apac98a4.tex)
%%Creator: (Textures\252: LaserWriter 8 8.4.2)
%%CreationDate: (5:00 PM 1997\224N 12\214\216 11\223\372 \226\330\227j\223\372)
%%For: (Yong Ho Chin)
%%Pages: 6

No I don't a copy of the Harlequin RIP. I only have the dongle.

I did not think it would need a RIP because the PPD says it is a level 2.

See the first few lines of the PPD file:

PPD-Adobe: "4.2"
* % Adobe Systems Compatible PostScript(R) Printer Description File
* % for the Fuji FirstProof PPD v.1.2
* %
* % Copyright 1996 Fuji Photo Film Co.,Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
* % Created by: Y.Muramoto
* % Modifyed by: Y.Muramoto '96 5/20
* % :Paper Handling/InputSlot
* %
* %

* FormatVersion: "4.2"
* FileVersion: "1.2"
* PCFileName: "First proof.ppd"
* LanguageVersion: English
* Product: "(FIRST PROOF)"
* ModelName: "FIRST PROOF"
* ShortNickName: "FIRST PROOF"
* NickName: "FUJI FIRST PROOF"

* % Basic Device Capabilities ========================
* LanguageLevel: "2"

Is it still mean that I need a RIP program?

Thanks,
Tuong
