Could someone who has tried this please confirm that this works,
and for which version of the laserwriter driver this works for?

I have tried and tried this with no success.  Holding down Control-K
immediately after clicking on "OK" in the print dialog seems to be
ignored, I just get the "looking for laserwriter" message.

I am however successful in getting a "postscript" dump of the data
file without the header by pressing Control-F immediately after the
Print dialog.

The hard/software setup I have is :
	*NO* physical appletalk connected.
	Tried this with both Appletalk connected and disconnected in
		Control Panel.
	Laserwriter chosen in the Chooser.
	Laserwriter driver and LaserPrep in HFS System Folder.
	MacWrite in some other HFS folder, document in another folder.

Thanks in advance for any help
