  I have GhostScript, and as far as I know it will not output to a printer.
  I have used it to output to an EGA screen.

>(2) Does have a name as a ftp site for the interpreter written by Chris Gospin

  I too am interested in converting PostScript to be printed on a
  non-PostScript printer (specifically, an HP LaserJet).  Please post
  any info about Chris Gospin's interpreter or any other.
