Hello, I've just finished compiling GhostScript on a PC compatible and managed to print the golfer.ps file on a Genicom defined as an Epson (i.e. I told GhostScript that I want it to be printed on an Epson). There are two problems with it: 1. The scan lines are not tight (there are gaps). But all of the picture gets printed (see below why I mention this). 2. After several attempts (I copyed gdevepsn.c to gdevgeni.c and defined a new device) I managed to make them tight but it stopped after 18 scan lines (several times, exectly at the same spot). I tright to change back to Epson, but it still stops after 18 scan lines (with the gaps, as before). Of course, I turned the printer off and on between each tryal. The question: what's wrong? Hardware: Olivetti 24. Genicom 3140 with Parrallel interface. Softwre: GhostScript 2.0 compiled by Turbo C 2.0 to be run on 8086 with no 80x87 coprocessor. Please E-mail responses as I don't follow this group. Thanks in advance, Amos Shapira amoss@batata.huji.ac.il
