I am looking to spool laserprinter output from the Macintosh out its serial
port to another computer (that watches for input - and spools it to the
printer).  This is because we cannot have a direct connection from the Mac
to the laser printer.

I need an application (preferrably a DA) that will add a prespecified
set of characters to both the front of the file and to the end.  I also
want it to go out the port at a high speed (faster than 19200?).  This
is to work on postscript files generated via the command-f key.

Does anyone know how to write such a DA, would someone write one and
post it to the net, or would people in net.land give me some pointers
as to how to program this.  Mind you, I have no experience programming
the Mac.

Please send me mail at:
	riedesel@aisung.cs.uiuc.edu
or:
	riedesel@b.cs.uiuc.edu

Thanks, Joel
