- Has anyone successfully printed to a laserjet 2-sided with emTeX's
- dvihplj printer driver? I've tried the '/pi' option that allows you
- to specify an initialization file that gets included in the output
- file but that produces a problem. My init file contains *only* the
- code for 2-sides on the HP (no ^Z at the end of this file). The
- dvihplj manual says that the text in the init file will be output
- immediately after the reset (^E) is sent to the output. Well, I
- looked at the output file (I don't output to a printer directly with
- dvihplj) and after ^E was not the contents of my init file. It came
- somewhere later in between an escape sequence. Anyway, I get the 2-sides
- but the first page contains an 'L' character in the upper right corner
- of the page.
-
- I'm trying to locate a binary editor for DOS that will allow me to
- insert the 2-sided escape sequence. But this is not fun.
