I have a problem of printing a PostScript file  from a MAcIIci to an Apple
Laserwriter using either SendPS or Apples Laser Font Utility. These are
connected on a Localtalk network. After printing a few pages about 35 out of
150 pages, the program aborts saying " Printer "name" not on network. pl.
ensure that both the Mac & Printer are connected". Even though physically they
are connected, I cannot proceed beyond this stage.
	Is there a way of viewing the PostScript file before printing /
debugging the file. Else how  can we find the page number of the document from
the postscript format file opened in Word / teachtext ? so that the erroneus
page can be removed.
This sort of problem might have been addressesd earlier. but I am a novice to
postScript and this is the first time I am browsing this newsgroup. Hope
somebody will be able to help me out.
Pl. mail a copy of your reply to :
	nair@coe.wvu.wvnet.edu

Thanks
