	I have an IBM AT running XENIX.  When I output to the printer,
I get a nice banner telling who printed the file.  Unfortunatly,
the AT thinks that this banner is so nice that it outputs it twice. Followed
by an extraneous blank page.

what I want is :: name_banner
		  <ff> 
		  files

what I get is ::  name_banner
		  <ff>
		  name_banner
		  <ff>
		  <ff>     <-- second form-feed that causes the blank page
		  files

since the spool area gets only the files, I get the feeling that the
banners are put on by the device and therefore non-removable by me.
That is, I should learn to live with  them.  

question:: do other people have this problem?
	   has anyone solved it?
	   is  it even solvable?
