- All drivers I have looked for turn Perf Skip off before doing
- graphics (this includes Commo's driver). The problem is most likely
- the page length. PCL is normaly a page orientated language. To
- avoid gaps, you may increase the paper length in preferences and
- run initprinter before dumping with PageStreams preferences
- drivers (do not use the Pagestream driver).
