In the application you're printing from, bring up the print
panel (alt-p is one way to do it).  Instead of <return> or
clicking Print, click on Save.  This opens a file browser
that lets you choose a directory and specify a filename for
the output file.  If you don't give the filename a suffix,
.ps will be added.  That's the file you'll send to another
machine to print on its PostScript printer.  I did that
hundreds of times before I got a printer.
