I have recently completed a succesfull installation of TeX and LaTeX on
a Gould NP-1. It passed the trip-test succesfull. Yeah! (Thanks to everybody
who helped me)

But now I've another problem: I downloaded w_dvi2ps because it has the
abbility to use pk-fonts. Everything works all right accept PSFIG.
It isn't possible to print home-made MacIntosh MacDraw picture's on
the Apple Laserwriter using mac.pro.

I've found on our computer 4 files named laser-prep-12.pro, laser-prep-40.pro,
laser-prep-49.pro and laser-prep-65.pro.
Typing:

     cat laser-prep-40.pro MyFile.ps | lpr -Plaser

prints the file succesfull on the Laserwriter. But when I use in a
LaTeX file the command:

     \psfig{figure=MyFile.ps,prolog=laser-prep-40.pro}

the printer refuses everything. Of course I included psfig.tex. So
what did I wrong. Every hint is welcome.
