Actually, at the bottom of that page I clicked on
Postscript, then used the Select Printer|Download for
the Gestetner DSc38u (the exact model we have), and
downloaded that PPD. It installed fine, and I can
print other file formats, etc, but not pdf.

I don't know. In the printer's settings it correctly
describes what's in the trays, being 8.5"x11". It
never sees anything coming in when I send a pdf, as it
doesn't even wake up from sleep. It does wake up when
I send other file formats though.

I'm sorry, but I've described all the details in prior
emails with this same subject, and I thought people
had seen it.
