Well, if you enable the "Disk File" checkbox in the LaserWriter dialog
(by mucking with the dialog via ResEdit), and enable Background
Printing, you will gain a number of benefits:

1) Clicking the Disk File checkbox to create a Postscript file is sure
easier than trying to holding down Command-F at the appropriate time.

2) The dumping of the Postscript files to disk can take place in the
background (not possible using the Command-F technique).

3) And lastly, but not leastly, all created Postscript files will be
placed in a folder called "Spool Folder" in the System Folder.  (As
you might expect, this is the same place where the spool files are
created when background printing is on.)
