In mine, Chapter 12 describes Mma's ancillary programs. One of these is called `psfix' and needs to be installed in your executable path (or your PATH environment variable should be changed to include $MATHDIR/$MACHINE/Display which is where I found it). On a unix system, it can be used like psfix file | lpr to add the necessary PostScript code for the printer to interpret. Look in $MATHDIR/man for the manual pages for this and other Mma programs. -Jerry
