I just found out that the PostScript driver supplied by Lotus in the 
1-2-3 Value Pack can't be used with a network!  Just people I know at
National Institute of Health tell me that it is a loadable device
driver that takes output to an LPT port, and sends it out to a serial
port -- no option to send it to an LPT port.  As a consequence, it
isn't useable on any network -- it sounds like you would HAVE to use
the serial port on any PostScript printer you wanted to to use with
Lotus.

How stupid ARE those guys at Lotus?
