As you can see in my earlier post, I 've changed the postscript driver
to HP Laserjet 4/4M PS and tried to print the word document to a file.
This time I printed to two different files with the postscript option
set as Standard PS as well as EPS. Now I transfered these files to the
server and send it via sendfax manually.

I results are interesting, send fax can only send the file printed as
EPS, not the one as Standard PS. But I can do a ps2ascii on both files
and the see the results. Now what does this mean? 

Ok. then I tried to set the printer driver at client side to use EPS as
standard postscript option and in that case I can't print to the
printer, but only as to a file.

Is there someway I can solve this?
