PostScript for non-postscript printer

I am trying to use non-postscript printer for postscript reports generated by one of the applications (oracle apps). Is there any tool which converts and prints postscript pages on non-postscript printer. As per my understanding `gostscript` provides this functionality but I am not sure whether we can directly integrate to the Application. Any ideas will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hi,

I think that ghostscipt will be the best
solution for doing this.

Hi,

YOu can try converters. For ex., ps2txt from

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/PostScript/pstotext-1.7/

may help converting the ps files to text. Search in that website to see if you can find anything useful.
