I found the answer from another list.
The HP Laser III Postscript printer driver does fine. Just have to adjust memory
to
zero for my inkjet printer in the properties dialogue box. I was going to print
to a file and then lpr but, heck, I just added a network printer via samba (my
lexmark z32)
and used the HP driver and it works just fine.
This must have something to do with why I like linux more than windows.
