- From the "readme.txt" file in the 40a patch dir......

- USE PRINT MANAGER TO CONTROL PRINTING
-
- When configuring Printers to be used with PC-NFS software, it is
- recommended that you use the Print Manager. You can do so by selecting
- "Use Print Manager" in Control Panel. Print Manager correctly handles
- output redirection to a local or remote printer. If you have problems
- printing to a local printer (i.e., one attached to your machine), go
- to Print Manager and verify that "Print Net Jobs Direct" is disabled.
- In Windows 3.1, select "Options" and then select "Network Settings."
- In Windows 3.0, select "Options" and then select "Network."
