Hmmm..  We'd need a little more info to help you on that.  ProTERM's
editor always printed fine for me.  [ I just wish you could specify more
than 99 chars/line and more than 99 lines/page.  I can quite easily
print 160 chars/line and 158 lines/page (mind you it's small :-) ]
Does it print at all for you?

Yes, I've noticed this a lot.  I also think it should print 12:00:xx
instead of 0:00:xx when it's 12:00 midnight.  Since there is a teensy
bit of GS-specific code in ProTERM already, I think they should get
the time from the toolbox so it comes up in the format I set in the
control panel.  And I think it should print time on-line in seconds as
well as minutes.  And a bunch more things....  I could go on .... :-)
