we have some apple laserwriter II nt's in our labs.  i recently received a
technical report via e-mail that is a postscript file.  when i tried to
print it under dos to the laserwriter with the command:
  COPY BENCHMRK.ANL/B LPT1
only the first page gets printed.  (i had already issued a MODE command to
setup the com port as lpt1, at the proper baud rate.)

a friend who uses a version of TeX for the pc suggested that dos is not
handling the hand-shaking between the pc and the laserwriter properly.  to
demonstrate his point, he printed my document via a program (not public
domain) that came with his TeX package.  it printed everything just fine.
does anyone know of a public domain executable (.com or .exe) that does the
same thing.  please e-mail to me directly.  if lot's of other folks send me
e-mail asking for the info., once i get it, i will post a response to the net.

thanks,
