Can anyone tell me how to set up a postscript printer under Solaris 1.x
so that we can print text files to the printer?

Thanks,

In comp.unix.solaris you write:

There is a program called "mp" in $OPENWINHOME/bin (or /lib). It translates
ASCII to PostScript. Otherwise there are lotsa public domain programs to
do the same thing.
