    We just recently got TeX (and LaTeX) here and there seems to be one
major obstacle to our use of it.  We would like to be able to make
non-laser printer output (i.e. for draft copies or for when our one
laser printer is down). Does anyone have a driver that takes .dvi files
and produces plain vanilla ascii output. If I'm overlooking some
obvious TeX mode or command please excuse me and point out the error of
my ways.
