Many thanks to Larry Rosenstein of Apple for answering this
question.

A related question was asked by someone who wanted to get
proofs on the ImageWriter, and later print the document on the
LaserWriter.  Guided by Larry's suggestion, I have a partial
solution:  If you format for the LaserWriter as per Larry's
instructions (First deselect the ImageWriter using the
Choose Printer DA, then use Printer Setup and click OK),
*THEN* go back to the Choose Printer DA to select the ImageWriter,
but DON'T use Printer Setup again, the document will stay formatted
for the LaserWriter but can be printed on the ImageWriter.  It
will come out a little funny (About 10% narrower, but just as
long), but the pagination and placement of things will (within that
constraint) be as they will come out on the LaserWriter.

This will not work if you want to print the document "Landscape"
style, but will suffice for most applications.

I agree with the original writer, that there should be a mode for
proofing on the ImageWriter that gives a document that is correctly
proportioned, and that will work with "Landscape".
