Just goes to show how much these "Apple" dealers know about the GS...
Copy the LaserWriter driver into your drivers folder and rename it to something
else, like PostScript. When you go into AWGS, select the Direct Connect Cdev
in the control panel and pick the laser printer.

When you get the print dialog box, hold down OpenApple-F while clicking OK.
It'll say creating PostScript file or something like that. After it's done,
you'll find a file name PostScript.GSxx in your system/drivers folder where
xx is a 2-digit number (starts out at 00).

Hope this helps!
