Please tell us how you do it.

The Iyonix won't print direct from Netsurf due to discrepancies in  
Printers 1.72

Printers can be upgraded via the ROOL downloads to Printers 1.73 and 
this provides printing direct from Netsurf.

 _BUT_ unless there have been improvements/changes in the last few 
months:

It does not work with postscript printers.
There are other problems: OvationPro bombs with a type 5 when one 
attempts to print top-bit-set characters in some fonts; David Pilling 
has investigated and reports that the problem is in Printers, not 
OvPro. EasiWriter printing is unreliable (to be polite).

I've been down the above road and retreated back to the safe ground of 
exporting Netsurf pages as Draw, then printing the Drawfile, which can 
easily be edited to remove unwanted dross.

Regards
Roger
