[comp.dcom.telecom] Anybody Need Labels For GTE 4200-series Telephones?

"Brian K. Reid" <reid@wrl.dec.com> (04/08/90)

Last year during a big sale, I bought a bunch of GTE 4200-series
telephones for my house (4250, 4275). I had a lot of trouble with them
and finally returned them; I've since bought AT&T 732's, which don't
have as many features but which have so far been more robust.

I'm somewhat of an amateur with telephones but I'm a pretty intense
PostScript hacker. So, while I had the GTE phones I developed a
PostScript file that makes very handsome labels to fit into the
various plastic inserts on the telephone, to label the memory-dialing
buttons and the line telephone numberrs.

I will happily mail a copy of this PostScript file to anybody who
wants it. I can't bring myself to delete it, given how much work I put
into making it. Unfortunately, the AT&T phones have an insert that is
full of holes and is practically impossible to print properly on a
laser printer.
