My impression is that I can buy and Apple Laserwriter and connect it 
to an RS232 port on my 780 running Berkeley 4.2 Unix and happily begin
printing troff/ditroff output.  Is that correct?  Does one need to 
order any special options?

I believe I have seen mention of ditroff-->Postscript drivers, converters
or whatever mentioned, but I don't recall the sources.

Thanks much.
