This is printing-and-page-reversal in view mode; [Up]


Date: Sun 19-May-1989 02:23:43 From: Unknown Subject: printing and page-reversal I'm just printing most of the on-line documentation and observe the following behaviour when printing from WriteNow: _ Files printed when the printer is idle appear first page first, i.e. I then have the fun of reversing the pages by hand. _ Files printed when the printer is busy land in the queue and are printed last page first, i.e. no reordering necessary. Has anyone observed a similar behaviour? Does this make any sense to anyone? Similar topic: is there any way to print a WriteNow document without opening it on the screen? I.e. is there a way to type something like "WriteNowPrint foo1.wn foo2.wn foo3.wn ..." ? And how do I print a WriteNow document if I'm not sitting in front of a CUBE? Ha! Good anwers anyone?
