Steve,

The problem you are having stems from the fact that the prepfile used for
Mac-generated postscript assumes that you will be accessing the laser
printer via a local area network (AppleTalk).  The LAN is somewhat different
in structure than the UNIX host spooler/buffer.  You can eliminate the 
problem either by deleting or commenting out (%) the line in the prepfile
which contains the following:

		setdefaulttimeouts.

There should be only one occurance of this in the prep file.  Its location
in the file will depend on which version of laser driver you are currently
using on your Mac.
