   If it supports Appletalk (and the Localtalk serial connection), as
well as postscript (NOT Quickdraw or other bastardizations of a page
layout protocol), then it should work off a GS with System 6.x's
Laserwriter and Appletalk drivers installed.

   The GSCII+ NDA can deal with them fine; see also Spectrum 2.0 and
the sscii command-line util. [csa2 FAQ section 6.2 on net standard
formats]
