From: Charlie Strom <CSTROM@Mit-Mc> Keith, the QUEUE-IV spooler is indeed transparent to all characters. I have been using it for more than two months now with an MX-80 and have had no problems whatsoever printing straight listings, WordStar files, and more recently lots of Epson graphics using Fancy Font . Bob, the guru behind the Queue-IV, is in a position to supply a prom which will do things such as skip over perforations if desired, but this is not normally supplied. The unit does have the option of converting an incoming <FF> to a series of <LF>'s (there are a couple of choices of form length) but this can be turned off. Actually, I must confess that I do not have a manual for the unit; I met Bob through Compuserve and he sold me S/N 2 with the understanding that I would be a beta test site. I have yet to receive the manual and do not really need it other than to satisfy my curiosity. Regards, Charlie
