[ale] Printer question

It's not necessary for the printer to understand postscript.  You 
would select a printer driver on the windows box for some other 
printer that does accept postscript (e.g., an Apple LaserWriter II).  

The Linux box would then be configured to run the data through 
ghostscript which would generate the PCL code (presuming there's 
an appropriate ghostscript printer driver for your printer).  The 
details of configuration may depend on the Linux distribution you 
are using.

I'll check to see if my HP takes PostScript.  I hope it does.  This would
really help.

Thanks!
