Printing Error

[Joe Villari]

Thanks Jeroen

You've been very helpful through this entire process. I am able to print 
a postscript file just fine using:

[joev@localhost joev]$ /usr/bin/pap -p 4MP :LaserWriter@* /home/joev/test.ps


It's a bit round about but it does work and that's good enough for now.

Thanks Again

Joe
