How do I use the high level printer calls to text stream to the
imagewriter.

I have a program that receives data from our mainframe and prints it
to the mac printer.  I am trying to use the high level calls for
everything.  Since it seems that apple is discouraging use of low
level calls.  I get either postscript or plain text depending on
the printer.  I can stream postscript to the laserwriter with the
pic comments, but how do I stream text to the imagewriter using the
high level calls?

Thanks for any help
