Thanks for the quick reply, Ken, and for the info about the printer.  I 
could have sworn I had printed to it before [using fP] but I guess I didn't!

As a workaround tonight, I printed the fP output to a file and then used 
a word processor to print it. The only problem, which wasn't a big one, 
was figuring out the page formatting within the word processor so it'd 
print as intended.

Thanks again!
Grace
