Edit II V1.0.2 Problems

I have several problems with the new Edit text processor,
called Edit II V 1.0.2.  Can anyone shed some light on this?
 
1) Prints backwards - This processor insists on printing
to a laserwriter first page last.  Unless I open the side
door of the printer, I need to sort the pages to the 
proper order.  Is there some way to stop this like  
MacWrite II can?
 
2) Prints the date in the header - This is a nice feature
but I would love to be able to turn it off as my file names
tend to have the date embedded.  This has caused me 
confusion on multiple ocassions.
 
3) Lack of large clip board - There are times when I want 
to cut & paste a large quantity of text.  Edit II cannot
handle 1/4 the amount of text copied to the clipboard that
Edit 2.1 can.  Is there a way around this?
 
Thanks, John
