Hi,
        I'm new to linux, which I'm running on a PowerComputing
PowerCenter Pro
180. I don't know how to print a file or save it to the floppy disk.
        During installation I defined my Epson Stylus color 600 printer
and I
find that description in the printcap file. I have enabled printing and
queuing, the printer was on during linux boot. When I type the command
line 'lpc status' I get the message
        queuing is enabled
        printing is enabled
        1 entry in spool area
        waiting for lp to become ready (off-line?)
So what do I do next?

        The computer has hard, floppy, CD and Zip drives. How do I direct
output of a file to the floppy, or zip?

        Is it possible (with a two partition drive with Mac OS9 on one
partition and YD Linux on the other) to access from OS9 a text file
written by Linux to the hard drive?
        I'm taking a class in C++ programming (love it) and can't hand in
assignments (source code on floppy, program output on hard copy and
floppy). I need advice fast!
        Thanks in advance to anyone one will help me.
