Supported printer devices by the enclosed Ghostscript utility
These device names can be entered into the enclosed PCL.BAT file. It calls GS386.exe, the latest Ghostscript version available for DOS, to convert the postscript files made with FlWriter/htmldoc to a PRN printer file that can be send to printers which do not support postscript.
This will often work with later versions of these printers too. However, the printer should not require compressed data on the link to the PC as many printers do today.
