Postscript -> DVI translator?

     We recently inherited a Xerox 2700 laser printer for a VMS VAX, and
   are interested in the possibilities for Macintosh users to utilize this
   printer for more than mere text file printing.

     My basic question is: does a Postscript to TeX DVI translator exist?
   The converse translator, DVI to Postscript, was recently posted, but we
   need PS -> DVI. Is there some good reason why such a translator is not
   feasible? Otherwise, I might be willing to tackle it myself.

     Thanks in advance.
