I have been having a problem printing out files from a Unix system
using Alt/L in Procomm 2.3 and pr on the Unix system.  The first 7
pages consistently print fine, and on the 8th page, letters get
dropped, page lengths get fouled up, etc.  I end up having to split the
file to print it.  I tried printing a long file using Alt/L in Procomm
2.3 under TSO on an IBM mainframe and the whole file (longer than 8
pages) printed just fine.

Does anybody know why this is happening, and better yet, if there's a
way to fix it besides splitting long files into shorter files?

Thanks in advance.
