Yes.  I got a vanilla PostScript file from far away (Gene Spafford at GA
Tech, maybe) and printed it fine.  

	Mega + Ultrascript + SLM804 = Postscript printer

You can even write a driver which would take input from the serial or
parallel port and print it on the laser, put the whole works in one box,
and call it a dedicated Postscript laser printer!  No monitor required!
