Is there any other application for efficiently sending PostScript
documents over the network to be printed?  Currently, we are using Adobe's
SendPS utility - unfortunately, it has several disabilities when it comes
to System 7 compatibility.  (Send PS looks for the printer in the root
System folder, and not in the Extensions folder where System 7 places it. 
Therefore, you must constantly keep a copy of the Laserwriter file in the
root level of the System folder, and it's a hassle when you want to change
your output printer.  I've tried using aliases but it doesn't work...)

Thanks in advance for any helpful responses.  Please e-mail if possible.
