to it through lpr, the first line of the page is cut off. Why?
This only shows up on versions of the IIg (and IIf) with less than 5MiB RAM. The reason is because this makes the LW default to PhotoGrade-mode. You can do 2 things to fix this: 1. Using the LaserWriter Utility program, disable PhotoGrade. Since one of the main advantages of these LW’s is PhotoGrade, this option is kinda unpalatable. 2. If you are only using “Letter” mode under ‘lpr’, then you can edit /usr/lib/ps/pstext.pro to include the following line between “% RCSID:…” and “/StartPage…”: %!PS-Adobe-1.0 % Z%Copyright Apple Computer 1987\tVersion 1.1 of pstext.pro on\ 87/05/04 19:02:25 %%Creator: pstext %%DocumentFonts: Courier % RCSID: $Header: pstext.pro,v 2.1 85/11/24 12:19:55 shore Rel $ ====>>>letter /StartPage{/sv save def 48 760 moveto}def This will fix the problem and make it usable again.
