The simplest way to print a PS file to a PS printer from Win3.1 is to
use File Manager to Copy the file to LPT1: (or whichever port you wish).
There's also a free program called Ghostscript that will translate PD
files for a variety of printers. Its companion Ghostview will let you
view the PS file under Windows. If there's a problem with the PS file
Ghostscript should help with debugging. Some printers (eg HP series)
have an option to print error messages (accessible on the printer
control panel) - this option is off by default.
