Frequently Asked Questions Frequently Asked QuestionsQ:
Printing a Concurrence presentation to a QMS color printer under NEXTSTEP 3.x sometimes results in clear shading on colored letters and sometimes deletion of colored letters (colors turn white). These slides were created under NEXTSTEP 2.x and worked fine on the QMS printer then.
A:
The problem you are having with printing are most likely due to PostScript Level II support in NEXTSTEP 3. Try the print option to save QMS specific PostScript:
1. (You may have already done this step). Set up the QMS printer in the NeXTApps/PrintManager.app. Be sure to select the QMS printer type under "Type".
2. From Concurrence, do a Print... and select the QMS printer in the print panel.
3. Instead of clicking the "Print" button click on "Save".
4. In the popup near the bottom in the Save panel change it to "PostScript for chosen printer" and give it a name.
5. Open up /NextApps/Terminal and type:
lpr<space>-P<printername><space><filename>
e.g. for a printer named Yikes and filename /tmp/junk.ps, you would type:
lpr -PYikes /tmp/junk.ps
