there are several possibitilies why it's not getting printed.. I'm
guessing that it's pretty complicated, and too much for athena printers
to handle.. what you can try to get an error message out of the
printer to find out what's wrong is to prepend an error handler to your
file.. .
try:
attach web
cat /mit/web/PS/ehandler.ps idraw_file | lpr -P_____________
(printername)
