Very Computer

: P.S. - The Epson device does show up under Ghostscript.

I print with gs with no problems from ez files:

1) Save the ez file, say file.ez (though I use file.doc)
2) ez2ps file.ez file.ps
3) gs -sDEVICE=epson -sOUTPUTFILE=file.lpr file.ps
4) lpr file.lpr

What this does is convert the ez file to a postscript file.  Then,
ghostscript converts the postscript file to something an epson 9pin
print understands, and put's it into another file.  Then, I simply lpr
that file.  There is supposed to be a way to get the output directly
to the printer via a pipe, but I'm missing something so I'm doing it
manually <shrug=don't print many documents>.

Optinally you can add a line -r(x)x(y) to affect the resolution.  It's
listed in the man page for gs.  The other thing I found, and this I
DON'T even begin to understand, is that OUTPUTFILE has to be in all
caps, even though the manpage lists it as having the form  of
OutPutFile <grin>.

There are several options for differing type of epson printers.

One thing I haven't tried yet is to work on is some lines in the
preference file, specifically the lines:

*.FormatCommand: /usr/andrew/etc/atkprint /tmp/%s.n |
*.PrintCommand lpr - P$PRINTER

hMMM, I meant the atkprint file (I think?).  Anyway, I'm going to over
the next few days work on the FormatCommand to set if I can get gs to
work there... ahh, the joys of two whole weeks off!!!
