RS/6000 printing to Apple Laserwriter

[Wendy Ross]

Has anyone managed to get a serial-line attached Apple Laserwriter
to print from an RS/6000?                                         

I have the device set up properly (ie I can echo postscript commands
to /dev/lp0 and it works), and I even got a postscript file
to print using this crazy AIX printing.  The problem comes when
trying to print ASCII files.   What is the proper formatter/input
filter to translate ASCII to postscript?  Has anyone modified one
of the predefined printers to successfully work?
 
Thanks for any help.
