Display type:		PMAGB-BA

What were you trying to do?
	
Set the printer. 

What's wrong:

The dialogue box does not display any text on the subwindow where one
writes.  Therefore, one cannot see if one screwed up with the name of
the printer. From my experience, this tends to happen only on DEC
5000/133.

What should have happened:

I should see the text I type in the subwindow, and tus have certainty
about the name of the printer.  BTW, ez can send printer submissions
to nonexistent printers, i.e. it simply says 'Print request
submitted."  no matter what.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:

None, but I read some cool stories by Borges over last term.  They're
overly cool.
