Hi,

I'm not a subscriber to the list, but I do have a question.

It looks like the Apple Laserwriter driver from Timeworks is communicating
with the Laserwriter. In the first place it asks for the status of the
Laserwriter, and second it asks for the kind of interface the Laserwriter
is initialized on (one of the option numbers of the Laserwriter).
If no answer comes on that question the first time, it asks it several times,
but with a timeout. If no answer came at all, it starts sending the Postscript
commands with the Xon/Xoff handshaking.

This is where my problem comes. I want the Atari to send the Postscript to
a VAX machine and from there on print to the Laserwriter. I don't want to
answer the question of the option number ( the handshaking), but I want to
change the default of the printer driver in Timeworks to the DTR/DSR (
option 68).

Is it possible to do that, or am I asking a hell of a question ?

Please answer to me directly, since I'm not a subscriber to this list.
