Could it be a problem with /etc/printcap ?

Ours looks something like:
...
	:fc#071457:fs#06320:mx#0:sf:sh:\
	:xc#0:xs#0040040:\
...

I've forgotten the significance, but it works for us (albeit not tried from
PC-NFS). Sure as hell, if the printcap's wrong, you get garbage fonts etc.
I know. We've done it several times.

Brian.
