I glad to see that it seems to work for the LQ800 printer, however, I can't
get it to work on my Epson FX-286 printer. Many other graphic programs output
graphics to this printer and I have never had any problems. I get nothing but
garbage characters on the printer. It's almost like it doesn't get into 
graphics mode. Has anyone got Ghostscript to work on an FX-286? Any help
would be appreciated.
