That's for printers like the genicom.  The LW SC has no PostScript
capability, and is a simple bitmap printer *ONLY*.  One of the devscsi
programs in 4Dgifts/examples/devices/devscsi is for this printer, but
the big jobs is in getting the files you want to print in the bitmap
format that printer uses.
