Ghostscript has a GDI output option on Windows, so it can print to literally any Windows printer.

I'm not seeing that in the options above, perhaps it was added in a later version of GhostScript? I'm on Windows '95, so am limited to what I can use. As noted, I did try a newer version of GhostScript. I think 8.60 was the cutoff.. I was able to find 8.54 but it had issues processing the PostScript from the "LaserWriter"

The device name is "mswinpr2", which your build has support for. https://ghostscript.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Devices.html#ms-windows-printers

Neato! I'll update the "guide". Thanks much!

Well, I think I might leave a more generic guide as an exercise for the reader. This solution is based on redirection using RedMon, and mswinpr2 is going to bypass the need for any post processing by RedMon. I am sure there is an alternate way to configure things here, but I'll let someone else do that!
