Hey Darcy,

It almost seems like the win2000 is unable to use the right/any postscript  
driver. I had setup my wifes win98 computer to use the "Okidata OL830 
PostScript" driver in windows (after many attempts using others), and it 
finally saved out under her account (/home/carol) on my spare mdk9.0 box. It 
was working really good, but I have not checked it out for some time now to 
see if it still works. I am no expert in this, but I don't remember having to 
do a lot with permissions settings...I did however go through many postscript 
drivers before I found one that seemed to do the job.
