You have misquoted me, sir. I _never_ referred globally to Netscape
on to the extra page I got when
printing from the Win95 box, I also got an extra page when printing from a
Red Hat box also connected to the network. Using apsfilter, I do not get

Thanks in advance for any ideas about how to eliminate the extra page
