We've been using Mass-11 with Talaris QUIC printers for quite a while, but
I'm trying to get it to work with POSTSCRIPT printers.

For text with only one font, things work fine. But whenever I try to use
multiple fonts with <FO=x>, the page is never printed. The POSTSCRIPT
printer I am using is a Talaris PS-800.

As a test, I directed the print image (in POSTSCRIPT) to a file, downloaded
it to one of our Macs, and sent it to an Apple LaserWriter. I page was
printed correctly, but the Mac complained about "PostScript Error: %%[ Error:
undefined; OffendingCommand: KL]%%".

Anyone had similar problems? Any ideas?
