[U2] PCL extra page

Depends on how you are formatting it. If you are formatting it by sending a prefix string of characters from one file, then sending your job, that would cause any ESC E to shoot out a new page. Also, by any chance does your job have any print @(-1) that are sent to the printer. If your

In Universe, it isn't necessary to DIM a matrix that has been passed in a subroutine. Just to clarify what I meant here. The DIM or COM is still done but it is done in the calling program. It isn't neccessary to dim it in the SUBROUTINE in Universe.
