Subject: Re: extra form feed

Hi,

Somehow I just found my problem.  It appears that I thought the printcap
file was located on /usr/local/etc  And I modified that one.  My
original printcap file was actually located on /etc.  Once I modified
that one, things started to work properly even to not having an extra
form feed at the end.

Thanks for your quick response.
