Dorene,

You can print a postscript file by "downloading" it to any postscript
printer. If you're using a Macintosh, you can use the LaserWriter Utility
to download the file to the printer. Downloader is a shareware utility that
works very well, too.

To view files you can use GhostScript to interpret the postscript and then
GhostView to view the file on screen. More information is available at
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.html.
