[comp.periphs.printers] PS Interactive/A-MAX

gallo@dtrc.dt.navy.mil (Gallo) (12/30/90)

I'm working with an Amiga and A-MAX (Macintosh emulator) and a
QMS410 postscript printer. The A-MAX manual suggests saving the
print output as a Postscript file and using their "file dump"
utility to send it to the printer via parallel port, making sure
the printer is in the "interactive" mode.

The QMS manual has dire warnings about the interactive mode,
saying improper use can  destroy parts of the printer. Has anyone
heard of this happening? Any suggestions on how to do this
successfully?

Any help is appreciated!
