Subject: How can I print to a LaserWriter

The installation of YDL went fine!
I checked the "printer setup" and was prompted for information.
For printer type, I checked "Local printer" because the LaserWriter 4/600
PS (Postcript level 2)
is connected directly to the beige PowerMac.
Unfortunatly, the AUTODETECT seems to be PC-only. As it could not find a
LPT1, I had to enter a manual value. I tried "/dev/ttyS1".
Of course I choose "Postcript" in the printer list, since there was no
LaserWriter.
After installation, I went to control-panel, Printer button, lpd menu,
restart.
Worked!
Then I went to Tests menu to print a Postcript test page.
Worked! (well, I had the message: Page printed)
The only problem is that nothing is printing.
What is missing?
Thanks.
