Does anyone know if Apple is going to update the Async Laserwriter driver so I can print colors and Shades of Gray. The latest version is 4.0. Joe Craparotta Craparotta@level.dec.com --or-- ...!decwrl!level.dec.com!craparotta --or-- craparotta%level.dec@decwrl.dec.com

Can this be done by modifying the v6.0 laserwriter driver with ResEdit? In particular, can't you just change the STR resource #-8191 from "Postscript" to ".AOut" or ".BOut", which causes the driver to write the postscript to the modem or printer serial port at 9600 baud? Details appeared in a recent comp.sys.mac.misc message about printing postscript to a file or a serial port. Or look in: [sumex-aim.stanford.edu]info-mac/tips/generating-postscript.txt
