I did follow your instructions exactly as you gave them (follow my test in
post #44)

lpr -P <printer name> -oraw ko-nodebug-cut001.ps works perfectly I get the
Hello World printout

I then answered your question exactly : So, how are you printing the PS
file in post #44 if not with the lpr
command?

Well then if I wanted to do that I would : have to double click on it...
etc

I am sorry if that was not clear. Now what ?
