Has anyone successfully printed to a laserjet 2-sided with emTeX's dvihplj printer driver? I've tried the '/pi' option that allows you to specify an initialization file that gets included in the output file but that produces a problem. My init file contains *only* the code for 2-sides on the HP (no ^Z at the end of this file). The dvihplj manual says that the text in the init file will be output immediately after the reset (^E) is sent to the output. Well, I looked at the output file (I don't output to a printer directly with dvihplj) and after ^E was not the contents of my init file. It came somewhere later in between an escape sequence. Anyway, I get the 2-sides but the first page contains an 'L' character in the upper right corner of the page. I'm trying to locate a binary editor for DOS that will allow me to insert the 2-sided escape sequence. But this is not fun. Albert
