Connecting QMS ColorScript to a Sun.

I have a semi-urgent need to connect a QMS ColorScript printer to a Sun 3
(although any kind of Sun would suffice).

The spooling software is Interleaf's pl2ps now, but TranScript is another
possibility.

In particular, I have no idea what incantations are needed in the printcap
entry. An entry for a LaserWriter II/NTX didn't work: pl2ps got to the
point of waiting for an ACK from the printer, which never came.

I was using the same cable as on the LaserWriter, also.

Any help appreciated. Please email replies, I will summarize if anyone
cares.  (Forgive the wide distribution.)
