You might want to investigate SGI's IRIS Impressario product, it will
perform PostScript and SGI Image rendering on the host and send
compressed bitmaps to the printer, often yielding greatly increased
performance for your complex print jobs.  It's available from SGI
Express 800-800-4SGI.

If you're on a real budget crunch, try installing it using the "dumb"
model file in the Print Manager.  You'll only be able to print text,
but it should work fine.

If you have a PS cartridge, the "Generic PostScript" type will
probably work.

Cheers,

David
