Subject: Printing with I-APL?

I am having trouble getting my copy of I-APL to print.  I have an
Hewlett-Packard Vectra RS25C with EGA (actually, a high resolution monitor
running in EGA mode) and am using the /NE options on I-APL (the /N option
doesn't work any better).  The printer is a LaserJet IID (which happens to
have the S2 and Z cartridges).  I have tried to print the keyboard that
comes on the I-APL disk, both with and without running the APL font
downloading program that comes on that disk, all without success.  I just
get some funny characters on the printer, and, when I execute 'KEYS', I
just get the printout on the screen.

Has anyone had any experience with I-APL who can offer some suggestions?  I
strongly suspect that I don't yet know enough about handling MS-DOS or the
LaserJet, but perhaps an I-APL expert can point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

Bill
