Lets talk LW drivers for a sec.  Jeremy at CMU says he's using the LW driver
to print to a file since he doesn't have appletalk online:  Or does he
(Do you Jeremy?) My LW driver (from 5.02) doesn't show up under the
direct connect Cdev, and the LW Cdev can't find any laser printers online
since, ofcourse, I don't use AppleTalk.

Is it possible to use the 5.02 driver w/o appletalk to print a PS file??
I've been using the 4.0 LW driver that DOES show up under the Direct
Connect Cdev.

Let's talk PS printers for a sec.  Does anyone have experience printing
GS PostScript files to a PrintServer 40 printer??  I can get pictures
to print, or if I make the LW driver imbed the GS font into the ps file,
I can get an uchy printout.  I can't seem to get the PrintServer 40
to print text using it's OWN fonts:  I do know the names it looks for,
and I've edited ps files knowing case context is important.  What
happens is that the PS-40 will print nada.

I'm about to start comparing PostScript files that I know work (online
mainframe docs) with my GS PostScript files.

I hope I've been coherent enough for 2:45am... I was just working at my
Dad's office... he's a CPA :-)
