We have a problem with an Apple LaserWriter which may be PostScript-related. I tried to post the question earlier, but (a) it may not have made it to the net, or (b), I may not have been as polite when I asked it as should have. If the latter, I apologise; I was annoyed, because I wanted at least to have looked in the Reference Manual before posting, and the library copy here appeats to be unavailable. The basic symptom is that when we use 'enscript -2r -f Helvetica8 -B', for example, to produce a condensed page of a text file, the characters on the left (or top, if it were portrait) are being clipped. We are using Transcript software on Sun 3's; I have tried using the setmargins scripts which came with the software, but they simply move the problem. It has occurred to me that, possibly, there is an EEROM setting which needs to be re-initialised (the printer is a reconditioned one, recently acquired). Advice, even to tell me that I'm barking up the wrong tree, would be welcome.
