	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.
