	On the other hand, it may not be your Dataproducts printer's
fault.  (By the way, I believe the 2665 is a true, not just a
compatible PostScript printer.)  Not too long ago, our Interleaf rep
actually admitted that their PostScript output software was device
*DEpendent*.  So much for the promise of device-independent printer
output...  When are folks gonna realize that the LaserWriter ain't the
only PostScript game in town?
