The output using the command-k includes the entire laserprep file in your output
Laserprep is a proprietary apple postscript interpeerter for the laserwriter
series of printers.  The usual way to output postscript on a mac is to use
command-f which will only output the postscript from the file your working on.
This can then be run through an interpreted (such as masps for unix machines).
There are other chooser files that will configure your output for other 
postscript printers.  I belive that some of these are available by anonymous FTP
from Info-mac at stanford ro the simtel20 server at the white sands
missle range.

		I hope this helps.
