Even worse, I'm trying to print my postscript files from a DOS box that is connected to the printer through a TOPS network. The printer serves the Mac network that the 'front office' uses, and we folks in the underfunded CAD dept. get the leftovers, basically. (Even though the CAD department produces billable work, and the front office is overhead ...) > So, if there's a program that does the work on the host machine, and then sends the output to the printer, that's what I can use. Otherwise, it's pie in the sky, dream time stuff ... :) -- ah395@cleveland.freenet.edu Jeffrey T. Hansen Not affiliated with Case Western Reserve University
