I tried to print a PostScript file on Mac to a LaserWriterII, but
LWII printed the Postscript commands instead.  It seems to me that printer
manager doesn't try to look at header of the PS file and just treat it
as normal text file.
I believe if I can send the PS file directly to LWII without going thru
printer manager, the output should be correct.  Unfornately, I don't
know how to do it.
Any help will be welcomed.  Thanks in advance.
