APDA sells something called a serial laserwriter driver. This my let you print to a serially connected postscript printer in one step, without having to go to the 'k' or 'f' key kludge. It certainly should if your laserwriter is directly connected to a mac over a serial port, and it might help if there is another computer in the way. It is quite cheap, so someone who uses this configuration should certainly look into it. --- David Phillip Oster --When you asked me to live in sin with you Arpa: oster@dewey.soe.berkeley.edu --I didn't know you meant sloth.
