I've got a 6152, with a 4216 Pageprinter, and a 3363 WORM drive, and I
have a few questions/problems.

1) The 4216 always prints out an extra blank page at the end of every
job (either text or PS files). I can't seem to disable this 'feature'
from /etc/printcap. Is there a way that I'm missing, can I kludge it, or
am I out of luck ???

2) I've got the 3363 WORM drive, and would like to get it running. I've
built a kernel with WORM support, but I have no idea about 'formatting'
the drive. can I just use 'newfs' ?? Does anyone have one of these
beasties working on their 6152 ?? Any pointers are appreciated.

Thanx in advance.
