Setting:
"Old" troff on a Pyramid 90x (OSx 3.1), Transcript 2.0, Apple LaserWriter...

1) How does one go about removing the ridiculous small lines that troff produces
at the top of each page (upper right corner) when using -me and -ms?
I tried the -y option of the pscat program to no avail (either no effect
or messages that I was using non-existent units; no combination of white
space or lack of it in the command line made any difference).

2) With -me there is always a blank final page produced.  It doesn't happen
otherwise, so it's not just a sheet-feed-for-the-heck-of-it.  (What's more
annoying is that these sheets are curled -- so they jam the machine if you
try to re-use them!)

Neither of these problems occurs when raw troff is used, or using 'enscript',
etc.  Just troff + a macro package.  I'm sure both are there for what were
originally good reasons (machine X needed it that way).  I'm not looking for
explanations of WHY (or recommendations to use ditroff instead; sad to say
but we can't afford to buy it; it took YEARS just to get the LW!).

Any solutions?
