Greetings,

        I have Ghostscript 2.4 and a HPLJIIIP.  When I use it to print .PS
douments, it always uses the disk fonts, and some are not to spiffy, and some
are WAY slow.  Is there a way to tell GS to use the Times-Roman font built into
the printer.

        I'm not a real PS wiz, I just want to be able to print out the
occasional .PS doc that crosses my desk.  Not worth it to buy the PS emulation 
cartridge for the printer. Any sol'ns or pointers ? 

        I've already tried ps2asc, but some docs have graphics and stuff in
them.

                                        Regards,
                                        Peter
