Re: Printer File Overflow...

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A couple of points:  most PC-attached laser printers have margins for 
holding the paper.  As a result, printing on more than 64 lines really 
messes up things.  I doubt you can ever print 65 or 66 lines on a page 
unless you change to 8 lpi.

If your goal is just to print from file end to file end, skip the line 
number concerns, just ignore the overflow keywords and indicators.  That 
should work just fine for you?
