MacOberon Problems

Has anybody gotten MacOberon to print properly? Whenever I print something,
(Leda.Print Pluto *, Write.Print Pluto *, or Edit.Print Pluto *) 
the words have no spaces between them (sometimes negative space), and 
text runs off the top and bottom of the page.
Everything looks fine on the screen. 
Those are the only print commands I could find in the docs ( I can't even
print them to read how to use it). Does "Pluto" tell it what kind of
printer to use, or is it just the name of the printer that was hooked up
to the Mac they were porting the system on?

I really like the editors included in the package, but what's the use 
if I can't print anything?

On another note: Is there a way to use different directories? That seems 
pretty bad, seeing how it uses lots of modules, making a bunch of little files.
It would be nice to have a "tools" directory, a "text" directoty, etc.

Please let me know. I really like the system, but if this is it, I can't
use it.

Thanks
