  Hi guys,
       man dvips is not helpful in telling you where the config file is.
/usr/share/texmf/pdvips/config/config.ps is the name, a rather odd one
to my mind. Anyway, edit that, and comment out the pipe to printer. This
is a very counter-intuitive (and potentially expensive) default.
   Could it be changed for FC5?
