  I'm having trouble getting word 4 PostScript files that have been printed to
disk to print. I have the usual Appletalk laserwriter driver, but I want to
print on any of an LPS40 (VAX), or a dataproducts LZR- or anything! The
files are rejected with the error "md unknown" (or similar). This seems to
be a problem with some file that is loaded I think... A real laserwriter
NTX won't print it either. All the files print perfectly when connected
directly to a printer. I have heard of a patch to print on the LPS, but it
seems odd that this should not work. I have a copy of Ben Cranston's
"Rational" Laser Prep file- would this be any use?

  This is quite important, so any help would be much appreciated (email
preferred).

	Thanks in advance,

		Marcus Bointon.
