   That implies that the driver is having trouble loading the AUXPRINT.PAK   
   file.  Question: did you use InstPDR to install the driver, and was it   
   the latest version?   
      
   Make sure that AUXPRINT.PAK gets copied to the \os2\dll\pscript directory after   
   PIN has run.  (I assume you're using PSCRIPT rather than ECUPS.)  Some versions   
   of the driver don't copy it properly.

   For non-PostScript printers that's true (in the long term).  For    
   PostScript printers, I think the "native" printing system is probably    
   going to be the way to go for the foreseeable future at lest...
