The key sequence is CMD-K. However, there are some Laserwriter 
dependent commands within the file that needs to be stripped out
of the file if you want to print it on a non-Laserwriter postscript
printer.  I found a SED (Unix Stream Editor) file that strips the
file nicely.  I have been able to print the stripped file on both
a NEC 890 and DEC LN03R printer by running the file through this
editor.  Its a pain-in-the-neck process, but it works.  Anyone
who deals with Government procurement knows that it takes at least
6 months to get a simple cable.

If anyone wants the SED file, I will be glad to e-mail it to you.
Just let me know.
