E/L, E/D postscript printing from DOS/Linux
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
folks,
recently i posted an offer to print any postscript files generated by
E/DOS on my linux machine. basically, i just did lpr file.ps and the
printer does the rest - nothing special here is my point.
well, i was sent a .ps file from person using Exec/DOS who was unable to
print the file.
i printed the file in seconds without any problems.
here's my setup in case your wondering.
computer : linux machine connect to printer via network
printer : HP Laserjet 4si
additionally, i was able to obtain the exact same printout by using our
HP Laserjet Utility program on one of our quadras, printing to a
different HP Laserjet 4si.
so, it seems the files produced by E/D are ok, perhaps DOS or the
specific printers you are using are choking on the files.
