I've been told that the Lotus 1-2-3 PostScript driver only works with
directly connected serial PostScript printers, and there is no way
to make it work through a LAN (since the printer redirection on all
LANs redirect LPTx). (At least, that was the state of things a few
months back).
But I've got a product that solves that problem, if you need it.
