I would like to download postscript files to the postscript printer
connected to the UNIX machines.  

I have managed to generate the postscript file using GraphicWriter III
and pressing Open-Apple-F from the laserwriter print dialog.  The
Postscript file has some garbage on the top, so I deleted the part up
to  "!% PS. Adobe etc." and I uploaded it to the Suns here.  

However, the printer refuses to print it.  It seems that it has
trouble recognising it as a PostScript file.  I tried it on the NeXT
machines, but the preview program has difficulty recognising it.  It
outputs a whole bunch of errors.

Has anyone out there actually managed to print postscript files
generated by the Apple IIGS laserwriter printer driver?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
