i'm not sure exactly how to do this, but i'm sure i can find it in the 
manpages. However, i was using wordperfect on redhat 5.2 a few months back, and 
I didn't have this problem. At the time, i used their printtool gui to choose 
my printer....why would it work on rh but cause problems in debian?
