i've just downloaded and installed GS8.
From shell works fine but from TP, doesn't.

have you correctly set the command inside pagestream? it should look like that:

GS8:bin/gs_2n >NIL: -sDEVICE=tp24 -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q

note that with this release the devices are different compared to the old port (v5.x). have a look at the documentation of gs8.

whoosh, please remove obsolete devices - e.g. "Turboprint, tp24x, tp16x" from the release.

as already said, printing and viewing from shell, works fine.

Via TP-PS, GS8 searches "gs_init.ps" and other stuff, in GS5.10 dir.

how do you try to print with turboprint?
i mean do you call it from shel like that:
gs_2n -sDEVICE=tp24 blabla...

or do you use the gs.handler (e.g. copy the ps file to device PS:)?

how does the ghostscript commandline inside turboprint look like?

maybe an "assign ghostscript: gs8:" can help?
