We have a Sun LaserWriter with the attendant TranScript software, including the 'enscript' command. We're running SPARCS on 4.0.3, poised to plunge into 4.1 land. At another site, we would like the capability of driving a PostScript printer using the enscript command, as well as being able to blindly send text, screendumps, real postscript, and so forth, to a non-Sun postscript printer, and have it gracefully produce the expected forms of output. I think that Sun's TranScript does this for us with the LaserWriter. My question: what are some sources of software for transparently driving a PostScript printer from Unix, and also provide the enscript command? I will also welcome comments about using real Transcript with a non-Sun printer. Please reply directly to me if you have an answer, or if you would like a summary.
