Dear Perplexed,

It sounds like what you need is "SendPS".  That's a handy Mac
application which dumps PostScript to your favorite printer as native
PostScript.  I got my copy via anonymous FTP from the
sumex-aim.stanford.edu archive.  It was somewhere under the /info-mac
directory.  If you don't have access to FTP, Adobe will send you a disk
with the program on it.  Call (415) 961-4111 and ask about the "Tools
Diskette for Macintosh".  There may be other non-Internet sources that
I'm unaware of.
