LaserWriter 6.0 is part of the "Apple Color Disk" that contains the
necessary patch files for 32-Bit Quickdraw as well as LaserWriter 6.0.
LaserWriter 6.0 supports color PostScript devices, more paper sizes (e.g.
#10 envelope) and faster access to fonts on hard disks connected to 
LaserWriters.  The Apple Color Disk (final version -- no longer alpha-6) is
available on AppleLink and should be availble from authorized dealers,
Apple Support Coordinators and authorized electronic sources (e.g. 
CompuServe).  I'm not sure how long disk duplication and distribution`
will take, I would allow a week or so.
