[comp.sys.mac] Bitsmoothing & NeXT Laserwriters for MacPaint

pazzani@ics.uci.edu (Michael Pazzani) (10/18/89)

I'm playing with using a NeXT laserwiter from a MAC the easy, but inelegant 
way-- by getting postscript output (with Command-K), ftp'ing the file to
the Next and printing it.  It works great for a lot of things, but there's
no Bitsmoothing for MacPaint graphics.  300dpi with bitsmoothing looks
better than 400dpi without.  I doubt that NeXT didn't think of bitsmoothing,
so does anyone know of a hack to the LaserPrep file (which appears to make 
explicit checks for the type of printer) to enable bitsmoothing of Mac 
generated postscript on the NeXT laserwriter?

Thanks in Advance,
