My pretty print in infoexplorer is wrapping too much

Question:

  AIX 3.2.1

The original command line she was using was "troff -Thplj|hplj
-quietly| qprt -Pasc"  This allowed her to get bold, italic, etc. 
However, the output was being wrapped such that the last few characters
of each line were being printed vertically down the left edge of the 
page.

She has the HPLJ IV printer defined as an HPLJ II, with an HPLJ II virtual
printer attached.

device -->              lp0  available  hplj2

virtual printer -->     asc     lp0     hplj2

Her command lines in infoexplorer are:
simple print  :  qprt -Pasc -p12 -v8 -i 10
pretty printer:  troff -Thplj|hplj|qprt -Pasc

fontsize        :  medium
print articles  :  pretty

The HPLJ IV is connected to the parallel port of the RISC.
 Response:

Try placing the virtual printer into passthrough mode, _d=p and wp=+

She changed the command line in infoexplorer to "qprt -dp" at the end and
this solved her wrap-around problem.
