There is a commercial product available for the Macintosh that can
send a PostScript file to the printer and capture the bit image from
the printer.  Is this capability unique to the Apple LaserWriter or
can this be done with any PostScript printer?  I'm not interested in
the Mac product but in the mechanism for capturing the bit image.
Anyone know?

Thanks.
