The DeskWriter comes with a QuickDraw driver.  It can do many of the
same graphic effects as PostScript, but it is most definitely *not*
a PostScript printer.  There are Mac-based PostScript interpreters
now available that ought to work with the DeskWriter, but these are
likely to add about $300 to the price.  The DeskJet and DeskJet Plus
speak HPPL (HP Printer Language) and require a third party QuickDraw
driver for use with a Mac.
