desc:   is there driver available for the 1600cm?

Response Customer was sent a diskette with an unsupported
set of colon files.  She was able to print PCL, but PostScript
gave her errors.

sent /usr/lib/lpd/pio/burst/H.ps.
        it printed but got error right before it printed
        error: undefined
        offending command
        &PJL
        stack.
        had her send an infoexplorer document and it printed but
        again got above error print out right before
        Response:
        Since the commands are coming before the job they
        are coming from the "ci" attribute.  We can clean
        this up by making sure the ci attribute only contains
        a PJL Reset command and an Enter PostScript Language
        Command.  Actually we could talk the customer through
        this a lot easier than sending a diskette.

To get rid of extra PJL commands we will blow this
sucker apart.

lsvirprt
  ci~v

Change the output to contain only two lines:

Command To Initialize the Printer
ci = %IpU%?%G_j%{2}%=%t%IpL%e%I[pL,pR]%;%IpU\\012

 %IpU          INCLUDE: (Reset command)
 %IpL

cr is ok it sends \\4%IpU  (EOF and a reset).

Test Printing a PostScript File:
Printing the ipmap from Netview:
This printed in color with no problems.

Customer has 12.5 MB of PostScript Memory is this printer.

NEXT: Close Call, Customer said "That makes me happy".
