Lines: 18 Approved: laser-lovers@brillig.umd.edu I have also encounter the same problem before. What happens was that the printer that I've selected in Wordperfect did not match the one I was printing out on to. The printer that you are printing on has to match that of the one you selected. I'm not sure if an emulation selection also works. > The problem is this: I generate a ps file in wordperfect (dos version) >by writing to disk.

I printed mine as a WP file (with the right selection of printer), and proceed to ftp it to the printer, and it came out beautifully (both graphics and text). By the way the printer use was LJII. Hopes that helps. -------------------- Vu Nguyen Internet: vu@hobbit.gandalf.ca
