Hi Phil,

Still having problems here - on this RC4 installation - RMB on 
pscript.drv doesn't even have the option to open as ICON - only in Text 
Editor!
See my earlier postings - where Andy's procedure adds the new PPD to the 
pscript.drv, but then it doesn't show up when attempting to install that 
newly added printer model.

Thanks for trying anyhow.

Regards,
Mike
