Does anyone know if it is possible to send some Postscript code that will reset
an Apple Laserwriter Plus to power-up state other than by turning it on and off?
Our Laserwriter is used from many different applications
on a network and sometimes a previous print job will stuff up following
jobs. Is there someway to completely reset it to a known state and free VM
etc?
