I am hoping that someone out there will be able to help.  I am looking for
a filter to convert postscript (for apple laser printers) to the junk that
an IBM 3812 uses.  Any suggestions on where to look or if something could
be easily modified are welcome.  If anyone is interested in this filter
send me mail and I will try to get a reply to you when I find something.

I case it matters, this is the set up:  We will have ATT Unix PC's and 
IBM RT PCs running Tex( LaTex, whatever), and they can be configured
somehow to churn out postscript.  In addition we also have some microvaxes
running VLSI layout software that can also print in postscript.  Since all
these machines are netted together we would like for them to be able to use
the one laser page printer that we have, which unfortunately, is a IBM 3812
and does not recognize postscript.

ANY help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
