3477.0. "Printscreen and Applewriter II don't work" by PEACHS::BELDIN () Tue Oct 16 1990 16:54

	A customer has  a problem when trying to print printscreen-generated 
	postscript file to ab Applewriter II postscript printer. The printer 
	indicates it's working but nothing prints.  Customer can generate a 
	Calendar-program-generated postscript file and print it to the same 
	printer via the same queue and it prints fine. 

	The customer can also take above printscreen-generated postscript 
	file, feed it thru DECprint (postscript to sixel converter 
	application), and print it fine LN03 just fine.

	While I research this the customer is:

		- trying to capture to DDIF and then do a convert/doc
		  to postscript to try that
		
		- try other applications, like DECW$PAINT that use the
		  IMG$SHRLIB and see if it is isolated to 'image' data
		  (calendar postscript may not be image)

	Has anybody out there got this combo to work under VMS 5.3-1?
	Any special setups, ect?
