- I am having some problems using xpr. I have an okidata microline 320
- printer. It is setup as an ibm proprinter for emulation. xpr is supposed
- to be able to handle this setup, and sometimes it does. But most of the
- time I get garbage printed out. It seems especially bad for large
- windows. I use "xwd -xy" or "xgrabsc -bw" to grab the screens. It is
- quite important for us to be able to print out graphs and such on this
- parallel printer so any and all suggestions welcome (besides buying
- a poscript laser printer). I am using an RS6000 with Aix 3.2.1
-
- Alternative programs that can do what xpr does are also a possiblity, but
- I have been unable to locate any at this time. Xdump seems to need an
- Xw library and include files that I am lacking, and I don't know if it
- will do what I need. Thanks in advance for any help.
