		Our current system is able to print (under proprietory
software) English, Spanish (Single byte), Japanese, Simplified Chinese &
Traditional 
	Chinese (Double byte) character sets.

		When using a2ps, I was able to print the single byte
character set, however when trying to print the Simplified Chinese
character set, 
	nothing printed to the printer. Since then I have not been able
to print anything (Single byte included) to the printer in question
using the a2ps 
	tool. When I use lpr however, this still
works...........................any ideas?
