We have a standalone MacIvory (can't be hooked to other machines), and we have
been having trouble getting hardcopy.  Symbolics supplied the Print Spooler software
with a patch to use the serial port (LGP2, 1200 baud) of the Macintosh.
Load System Print seems to work OK, but as soon as we try to  Save
World Incremental, things break (sorry I don't have details, but this is
second hand info). 

Has anyone had luck providing hardcopy on a standalone MacIvory???
How's it done??   We would like to be able to <function>-Q,  but if we need to
run the hardcopy from the Macintosh side, and just create postscript files from
Genera, I guess that would be OK for now.

Thanks in advance for the info.
