[comp.dcom.lans] Mac printing on a PagePrinter on a Token Ring network

Here's a problem I'm having a lot of trouble with, any pointers to where I 
should start looking would be greatly appreciated.

Setup:  Mac IIcx running System 6.0.2, on an IBM Token Ring Network.  An IBM
	laser printer (is it called the PagePrinter?) is on the network.  BTW,
	this is IBM's personal laser printer that supports PostScipt, not their
        larger laser printer models.

Problem: Cannot get the Mac to print to the PagePrinter, even though all the 
	 PC's on the network print with no problems.

I am still under the assumption that one needs to install a document in the
system folder similar to the one that's used for the Apple Laserwriter's
that'll let the Mac print to the PagePrinter.  But then again, I could be
wrong (and probably am :-)

Any help anyone can give I would be thankful for, e-mailed responses would
be best, but I follow this group often enough that I won't miss a post.  If
warranted, I will post a summary of responses.
