I have an explorer II whos postscript printer died.  is there 
any way of making this machine print to a postscript printer 
connected to a unix machine (a sun for example)?

i realize that text files can be coppied over the network 
and printed directly on the unix machine.  i am however
stumped on the subject of getting screen dumps (bitmaps).

we have several postscript printers defined in the namespace
for symbolics lispms.  the printer definitions for these is 
however diferent.  if i modify one of these (localy) to look 
like the postscrit printer directly connected to the ti, and try to
print something, the result is a statement about not knowing how 
to spool to the unix machine.  is there any way to make the explorer
understand how to do this?  

if not, is there any way to convert the file (looks like some sort of a 
hex representation of the bitmap) left in the printer; directory to
postscript (which can then be coppied and printed)?


thanks much...
