I have a Postscript Document, (output from DECwrite), and wish to print it on
an Apple Laserwriter attached to a Macintosh SE.  The connection between the
Vax(VMS) and the Mac is a serial line.  I can use kermit and Mac240 to get the
Postscript Document over to the MAC. but I can's seem to print it. It want's an
application to do the print function.  If I import it into Macwrite to print it
- it prints the PS program rather than executing it!,  Is there not some way to
just "drop" the file" on the printer????
