OS/2 PostScript Printer Driver 32-bit
==============================
05/24/93 - v21.389 - OS/2 2.1 GA Version + 5 NEC printers
NOTE: New 32-bit Postscript driver
a) 32-bit IBM C/Set 2 code
b) PM_Q_STD data type supported
so .SPL metafiles can be created
for postscript devices before
translated to PS language for
faster LAN transmission.
c) Faster/better ATM font downloading
If you install an ATM font the
PS driver automatically picks them up
as downloadable device fonts.
d) Postscript allows all colors available
to display driver in the driver
so 256 colors are possible if using SVGA
or XGA display drivers in 256 color mode.
NOTE: Please use same level 2.1 postscript
driver on servers as on requesters.
This means servers should have at least 2.0
+ Service Pack installed.
Otherwise use the POST16.ZIP driver which
is still a 16-bit version for the time being.
