For the last 39 years, PostScript has been at the heart of the Mac, bringing desktop publishing, fonts, and the LaserWriter and other printers. It has been removed from Sonoma.

I have an old Brother HL-10H from mid 90s that’s still kicking using USB to LPT adapter and postscript driver. That thing is a tank, and isn’t likely to go any time soon. Guessing with this removal, it’ll also stop working when my last system upgrades to Sonoma and beyond?
