My experience has been that W4W cannot, as you point out, display EPS images.   
But it does, supposedly, allow you to print them if you use a PostScript  
printer driver.  

I usually print from W4W using such a printer driver, writing to disk instead  
of a printer.  Then I transfer the resulting postscript file to my NeXT and  
print it (I note that for some reason the PostScript printer driver inserts a  
^D character at the beginning and end of the file, something that Preview  
doesn't like). 

Unfortunately the EPS image never prints (the file is in fact, corrupt  
according to the NeXT postscript interpretor).  I'd love to know what causes  
this problem.  

I've only tried this with EPS images created originally on the NeXT.  I don't  
know what would happen with EPS images originating on the PC.
