Here is another data point.

IN case you have a NeXT box sitting around, WITH a laser printer
connected, then you could try spooling the mac postscript file to the
NeXT workstation, and then printing it using the postscript
interpreter on the NeXT workstation.

I once tried to use postscript preview of a macintosh document (with
laserprep) on a NeXT machine, and the previewer died.  This makes me
think it is no easy matter to use the NeXT machine as a postscript
network server.
