Hey Everyone,

Has anyone got OSX printing from actual applications through ghostscript to
actual printers?

I have a non-postcript printer which OSX doesn't support.

I've been reading ghostscript documentation until my eyes bleed, but I can't
seem to get the big picture. I found the section on "setting up a
ghostscript lpr filter", but I don't see how to tie that into the OSX print
center, to lpr, or to an actual remote network printer.

The /etc/printcap file says that it is only consulted in single user mode,
and NetInfo is used otherwise. But the output of ghostscripts' lprsetup.sh
script is an insert for a printcap file. Can this info be put in NetInfo?

And how do I get ghostscript to print to a remote lpr printer, or get OSX to
spool ghostscript's output to such a printer?

I figured this would be a faq - printing to an unsupported printer via
ghostscript - but I did search (thus my earlier question, and didn't find
anything).

-Avram
