	This is the story...I'm relatively new to the TeX world (I'd say about
three or four days sounds accurate enough).   Is it possible (as soon as I get
a copy of TeX for IBM ) that I would be able to print DVI files on a standard
9-pin dot matrix printer (e.g. Panasonic 1091)?  It's not like I haven't seen
it done before; I'm just wondering what I would need and where I would get it
from.  I figure that if ATM can do a reasonably good job with dot-matrix
printers, TeX should be able to do so.  If anybody has any ideas on how to do
this, please e-mail me...Thanx
