Hi folks.
I've got a system where my WinXP (they still work well) workstations have a
virtual printer installed on them.
This virtual printer uses Apple Colour Laserwriter Postscript drivers to
generate PS files which are then printed to a linux server where Samba passes
the file to one of my scripts which then parses the file, extracts data,
coverts the PS to PDF and then inserts the details into a database.
My problem is that on the new Win7 x86 PC's the Apple drivers are not
available. Can anyone point me to compatible drivers, or what I can do
instead.
