Has anyone out there managed to print Mac Postscript files to a DEC LPS40?
I am interested in a reproduceable method (details appreciated), with
hopes that it functions under the newest LaserWriter/LaserPrep releases.  
There have been some semi-successful attempts in the past, using older versions
of the named software.  It appears that this was accomplished by diddling the
LaserPrep file once (generated using "K" after "OK" in the dialog box), and 
thereafter prepending that working "template" to bare Postscript data files 
(generated using "F" immediately after "OK" in response to the dialog box).

Any help would be appreciated.

Gary
