switched printers -- now HelvObl prints with extra slant

[Art Campbell]

You don't mention whether the printers are PS printers or not; if so
they may have resident fonts which aren't invoked on your system.

I'd set the Printer metrics line in maker.ini to ON, to get accurate
screen display. And I'd also set the Adobe distiller printer instance
as the default.
