NAME

       texfix - fix (or escape) a bug of ROM in some printer.

SYNOPSIS

       texfix

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly the texfix command.  This manual
       page was written for the  Debian  GNU/Linux  distribution  because  the
       original command hadn’t manual page.
       With some printer, dvi2ps could fail to run with an error message like:

       papif: Starting job for kazama@square at Thu Mar 26  15:04:04  1992  on
       printer NTX-J[M5-112B]:LaserWriter@*
       Fatal system error @ 0X400f2fc0
       papif: Finished job at Thu Mar 26 15:04:41 1992

       This  is because there is a bug of old ROM in some printer.  To fix (or
       escape) this bug, texfix might be useful.

EXAMPLES

       dvi2ps foo.dvi | texfix | lpr
