Hi
   Well, they tell me that NEWS is finally up again. I still have my bug
lists for anyone who wants them, I tried posting way back when but things
weren't getting off campus. 

   On to the topic at hand. We recently purchased Interleaf and a 
Personal Pageprinter II. When I run 'devices' to add it (the printer) to the
system, I see a selection for Personal Pageprinter. It does not say II, but
I figure since it's the only reference to the beast... Anyway, when I 
select it devices goes off looking for adaptors and then says something
to the effect of 'You don't have any adaptors suitable for using this
printer.'. 

   I have a 135 w/megapel paralell, the two basic serials, and the
8 port Rs232 adapter. Anyone know how to configure the Pageprinter II? I
fooled it into thinking it was a Proprinter XL, but that makes the 
postscript useless. 

Thanks - 
Peter
