From: Chris Rawlings, Imperial Cancer Research Fund, London We hope to use an HP Laserjet-plus as a printer for our Sun workstations and I would be grateful for any comments on the feasibility of such a project or advice. In particular, has anyone written the print spooler data filters for troff, raster, and graphics files for either the Laserjet, Laserjet-plus or any dot matrix printer (Epson etc) that use byte encoded bit images and would be willing to share their source code? If it comes to writing our own filters for troff, would we be better to consider ditroff rather than troff? if so, to whom should I go for more information and copies? Thanks Chris Rawlings
