Does it have to be hooked up to serial port a/b or can it be connected to the (laser) printer port? Since I just have a stand-alone system (1.0a) do I need to deal with printer names and queueing, or can I just redirect the output to the device, /dev/ttya, or whatever the printer port device is. Also, how do I generate postscript files from WriteNow so that I can upload them to a laser printer at school? Thanks for any help, -Mustafa -- "Two days ago I saw a vehicle that'd haul that tanker.
