Printing Postscript Files
|
|
Netscape provides two options for printing postscript files:
- Print Directly to a Print Device
- Print to a File
Once either of these options is configured within Netscape, it will
remain in effect, within your directory, each time Netscape is
run.
Configuring Netscape
- select OPTIONS from the menu bar
- select General Preferences
- select Helpers
- move through items and select "application/postscript gsview32 "
- select either
- Save to Disk: saves file to file name specified
- Launch Application: sends file to local printer
- select OK
Print Directly to a Print Device
- click on the PS icon
- GSview will be launched, loading the appropriate file
- move the cursor to FILE and select PRINT
- from the printer setup menu
- under DEVICE select mswinpr2
- select All Pages
- under QUEUE select the appropriate printer
- select OK
Note: Printing in this manner can be slow on the Polaris system,
you may wish to print to a file and then print the file using the
laser command on Polaris.
Print to a File
- click on PS icon
- under the Save As menu, save the postscript file to your
directory
- print the file to a local printer
