Last night, i left the printer connected to our 1040 here in Zuerich printing
the ProGEM files, what a suprise this morning when I found about 400 to 500
copies of pages 114 and 115 covering more or less everything in our office ,
I used the PRINT option built into the desktop. I can remeber the same thing
happening at home with my 520 using the SHOW options, questions:

            - is this a "undocumented feature" (=bug)
            - or is it the FAT getting mixed up
            - has anybody had the same experience
            - if it is a known bug, why wasn't it
              fixed before TOS in ROM's was made available
              here (--> the ROM's arrived here last week ($50 grrrr...))

Both computers have the german TOS version in ROM.
