Original poster (again) here....

In looking a little harder at some of the responses to the basenote,
it may have been assumed that I was using some DOS feature to get my
postscript file from the PC to the Apple laserprinter.  Alas, 'twas
not.  The (only!) site at my school that has DOS -> postscript laser
printing has a friendly little program that will print your <insert
officially-school-supported-word-processor-program here> file for you,
and, oh yeah, they'll send a postscript file directly, if you insist.
Unless the program gets feedback somehow from the printer, it probably
interprets ^Ds as a flag that the file's done.  How convenient.

Well, I'm glad we're almost out of the '80s.
