I have a diablo 1630 daisy wheel printer. I wish to print both
regular files and nroff/tbl files. The regular files need their
^J turned into ^M^J. This I can do by turning on the fs#020
capability in /etc/printcap. But then the graphics commands that
nroff uses (I use nroff -Txerox, by the way) don't work. If I clear
the CRMOD bit, then nroff stuff comes out ok but regular files don't.

Am I supposed to use the "tf" capability with lpr -t or something?
Is there a standard filter for this or do I have to write something
which clears the CRMOD bit on standard output and puts it back when
done?

	thanks,
