  In the past few weeks we have been trying to get our Kinetics FastPath
gateway working using Kinetics "KSPOOL" software.  We now have it fully
operational for the supported operations (spooling from the Macintosh
network to the Unix machine and printing to the LaserWriter on the 
APPLETALK NETWORK). But there is still one operation which we would like
to perform.  This operation is to be able to print to a LaserWriter 
connected to a Unix workstation (Sun 3/50 running Adobe Transcript)from
a Macintosh.

  Finally we decided to download LaserPrep to the LaserWriter and see
what would happen.   Well, The Macintosh is now able to print but
whenever we try to print from a Unix machine (lpr), the text is printed
but it is mirror imaged.

  Has any one ever encountered this before?  Could any one yield any 
suggestions of where or how this is being done.
