If anyone out there can help, I am having similar problems.  I have
conman loaded, specified all the required assigns, placed some
postscript fonts in the PSFonts: directory (I think that is what it was
called, anyway), and made sure that init.ps runs first (I tried relying
on POST to run it, and running it explicitly myself, with no
difference).  All I get is a few black bars/boxes on the output paper,
or no output at all (sometimes it just guru's).  Note that I do have a
2091, but address zero is clear.

If ANYONE can help, I'd really appreciate it.
