I print *.ps files from Win95 quite a bit. You can use Ghostscript and
its companion program GSView, which can both be obtained from
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/aladdin/get550.html . It is freely
available.

Good Luck and Best Regards,

I need to be able to print these files from a Windows 95 machine to a color printer. Does anyone know of a utility program for Windows that will send postscript files directly to a printer without requiring the application that created the ps file? In the Macintosh environment there are such printer utilities that simply allow one to "download" or "send" a ps file to the printer. One such program is SendPS. I am looking for a similar tool for Windows.
