     We aren't using any filters.  PostScript or printer native files are sent
using lpr.  Our SysOp has written a script that will preprocess files, under
user controlled text menues, and use lpr to send the resulting file to the
apropriate printer.
     It seems that SGI's definition of not supported, means that since there
is no GUI for lpr then it's not `supported'.
