Is there a printer driver available for the Mac that will send PostScript
over a SERIAL connection to an Apple LaserWriter?  I have some people who
need to hook up a Mac to a serial print spooler that's connecting a bunch
of Sun workstations to a LaserWriter.  They want the driver to be Chooser
selectable, for maximum user convenience, and they want it to work over a
serial connection.  

The printer is running in PostScript mode, not Diablo 630 emulation mode,
so we can't just use a standard serial printer driver.
