Greetings,

I understand there exists a snippet of Postscript code which, when uploaded
to a Postscript printer, will advise the printer to generate a printed
message upon an error condition.  This is very useful when the program
sending postscript files to the printer is so dumb it doesn't pay any
attention to the returned error codes.

If anyone out there knows what I'm talking about, please e-mail me the code.

Thank you.
