I'm looking for help connecting an Apple LaserWriter IINT to a Sun-4/260.
I'd also welcome any suggestions for a problem I've having with said
printer. When dumping TeX/DVI output (created with dvips from Radical
Eye) which *include Postscript bitmaps*, the printer chews on it a while
and then outputs nothing. We have an NT hooked to a Sun-3 which happily
prints the same dvips output. The only real difference I can find is that
the Sun-3 runs the TranScript package, but shouldn't I be able to dump
Postscript directly to the LaserWriter without TranScript?
Here's my current printcap entry. Any major problems??
