I don't think you can.  The problem isn't the printer; it's the way WordStar
prints.  This is about my only beef with WordStar - I think it prints better 
than any other word processor, but it takes forever to do it.  I usually start 
WordStar printing and then go have a beer.  (I use it on an Apple //e.  Word-
Star, not the beer.)
