Anyone got software for a Sparcstation that would allow a PC plugged
into the Sparc's serial port to transparently use the Sparc's Postscript
laserprinter?  

Basically the Sparc should look like a real printer to the PC.

I'm looking for a software-only solution that is CHEAP, but easy to use,
since it will be used by several hundred different students.
