I tried using the Mac sys 6.0 If you turn of "Print Spooled Output While I Work", the PostScript files will stay around until you delete them; they are invisible files, stored at the root level, and the name of each file is PostScript.XXXXXXXX, where the XXX's are the hex representation of the date and time each file was spooled. Using DiskTools or ResEdit, you can change the attributes, type, and creator so that the files can be opened by a text editor.
