Postscript and Diablo on same printer

I'm trying to rig my postscript printer to support both PS and straight ascii.

From the thread of conversations on the newsgroup I gather it can and has been
done, but have been unable to ascertain with what.

1)  Is there as PD package similar to TRANSCRIPT that I can use, or
2)  Should I just set up two printcap entries with a filter in one of them..
	if so, how exactly is that done.
	I'm running SUN 4.1.1, but the manual doesn't specify any way of
	using personal filters, just built-ins.

Any help would be appreciated

Thankx
