We have our printer devices on the AS/400 setup so we can print postscript.
We also have some printers that are not devices and are remote writers and
we also have them printing postscript.

This is what our remote writer outq says (no device):

Subject: Host Print Transform & PostScript



Has anyone gotten Host Print Transform to output to a PostScript (only)
printer?

I know about the QWPZTAFP API...  But IBM says that Host Print Transform
should be used instead.   And...  there doesn't appear to be any way to
use HPT to output as PostScript!

I have both AFP and SCS spooled files, and I'd like both of them to be
automagically transformed to PostScript and then sent to the printer.
