[comp.sys.ibm.pc] TeX: dvieps and LQ-850 problems

umrafiq@ccu.umanitoba.ca (Salik "slick" Rafiq) (11/19/89)

I am having problems with dvieps and my Epson LQ-850 printer.
When it doesn't lock-up my printer, the margins and linespacing
come out all wrong (eg:"\vskip 1in" produces a actual skip of 
1.5in, but the relationship is not linear). Also the page numbers
appear in different locations on the page depending on how much
text is on a page, sometimes they appear on the next page.

Is anybody else with the same printer having the same problem?
Is there a dvi interpreter for this printer? If there is then
you will have to e-mail it to me because I have access
to only a few hosts from here.

Thanks for any help.
