Need help printing PostScript to SparcPrinter

I am using using Newsprint on a SparcStation to drive a SparcPrinter.
Unfortunately, the Newsprint software regularly misinterprets some of
the PostScript that it receives.  I would like to use Ghostscript to
take the place of the terminal filter in Newsprint and have it send a
raster to the SparcPrinter.  Can this be done, and if so, has anybody
done it already?  Thanks--I can't afford another Sun software
upgrade...
