Yup, Ghostscript is the only way to go. At my house I have about
18-20 Sun computers. Of course they are Postscript all the way. I set up a
little 486 Linux print server with a ghostscript filter that is directly
attached to a non-postscript HP Deskjet printer. That works out pretty
well. Saves me from having to buy an HP postscript printer with a
jetdirect card.
