Tell the students to print it on the SE with "Tall Adjusted" checked
in the Page Setup dialog.  This will make it close enough to what will
appear on the LW.

Also they will need to have bitmap fonts on their systems to match the
LW fonts (if they stick to Times, Helvetica, and Courier the generic
System Disk will have them).
