- Hi TeXers,
- though this is not really a TeX problem I hope that someone here could give
- me some help.
-
- I'm using gs (2.5.2) with a hpljet3 driver built in. When printing
- with the following script:
-
- gs -sDEVICE=hpljet3 -q -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -dNOPAUSE -sOutputfile=\|lpr $*
-
- through gs in quite modethe following unpleasant behaviour occurs:
-
- o gs ends printing with a GS> or GS<1> prompt which makes queued printing
- impossible.
-
- o the ljet IIIp printer is set into manual paper feed mode before each
- page. This is also not very neat when you have to print a 100 page
- document.
-
- o when printing a file I sent through dvips before the lower edge
- of the page is chopped off. I thought giving PAPERSIZE=a4 would cure
- this but there is near to no change after giving this switch.
-
- Does anyone have an idea how I can get these things corrected?
