I've always used the PS output function to print, but I've modified
MIME.CFG to call a home-made batch file to drive Ghostscript so that it
will turn the PS output back into 'ordinary' code for my HP LJ4
compatible. Why do I do this long-winded approach? Only because it gives
better results than simply printing ASCII text to the laser printer.
I'd be very willing to swap the PS output function for a genuine PCL
output driver - just so long as it really works, of course....
All the best,
Ron.
