I'm currently writing a little DOS-based program that uses the printer
on OS/2...  The ability to "test print" stuff without actually sending
it to the printer (by HOLD-ing the printer) is GREAT!!!   Now, I can 
make lots of "fine" changes to my output routines, and not waste a 
single sheet of paper!

Thanks OS/2!!!

(Shameless plug... :-)   )
