Good day,

currently I am trying to print to an Apple LaserWriter 8500 via "lpr"
since our IT Department claims this thing is a postscript printer which
is connected to a UNIX box which I believe, no problem.

The problem is that I am able to print to several postscript printers
connected to the same print server in our network, just this "beast"
will not give any output.

Using "lpr -P Apple Filename.ps" gives no error message and the Unix
machine acting as print server shows via "lpq -P Apple" that my
"Filename.ps" is spooled. Just at the printer side nothing happens.

Has anybody had any experiences printing to a printer like this from a
Unix or Linux machine?

Just in case, are there any important differences between postscript
level one and two? Does this printer needs level two?

Thank you in advance for any hints or suggestions.

Kind regards

                Arne
