I'm running Mozilla 1.5-3 so I'm not sure why it says "pn" for mozilla.

Anyway, I was trying to understand why mozilla's print dialog includes
the following printers:

  LaserJet@:64
  spooldir_tmp_Xprintjobs@:64
  PostScript/default

Is there a reason to use the xprint "LaserJet@:64" over the
PostScript/default (which uses lpr)?  I get better looking output with
the PostScript/default selection.  When using xprint it seems as if
the print is in a lower resolution.

I also have not been able to get network printing with xprint.  I looked
over the READMEs and didn't really see how that was suppose to be setup.

Any idea why it says :64 for the display number?  Is that just some
screen name selected to not conflict with what I might be using for a
real default?  Can I start a program on that "screen" and just have it
render to the printer instead of the display??  Seems odd.

Also, is there a way to have mozilla only display the PostScript/default
option?  It's confusing to have more than one printer option for the
same printer.


Thanks,
