The Mac prolog file is the file called LaserPrep in your system
folder.  However, it contains 68000 code for the Apple Laserwriter and
will not work as-is on the DEC LPS40.  Some modifications to the
header file are necessary.

I have modified headers for versions 65 and 68, with 68 being the
latest LaserPrep as supplied with System 6.0.2.  The Postscript
generated by the Mac is dependent on the Laserwriter version in your
system when it was created.  You need to send the appropriate header
file before sending your Mac generated Postscript.

I was going to make these publicly available on gatekeeper.dec.com,
but since they're copyrighted by Apple this probably isn't possible.
If you make a request, I'll email them to you.
