There are a couple of "magic" filters available to allow printing dvi
files directly.  Actually, they convert the dvi file to ps (or
whatever is required for your printer).  I use magicfilter with a HP
DeskJet 660C.  Also, look at apsfilter.

E, isn't the whole point of dvi that it is device independent,
ie it must be converted into something else to print? dvips (to
postscript) is the common example, but I think there's also dvilj4 and
the like to convert to PCL for HP LaserJets. I use a Bubblejet
so I use dvips + ghostscript to print. What printer are you try to use?

how to print dvi files??

1996-12-12 Thread David Puryear
Hi All,

Is there way to print dvi files? I know I can print it by converting it
to ps file but I would like to skip this step if there is way.

Thanks,
David
