I need some assistance in using the HP LaserJet with an IBM/PC.
First, is there a good print spooler that works with the LaserJet +?
When I use the AST SuperSpl program, the first page prints fine,
but I have to put the printer in manual mode and force eject each 
subsequent page.   Any suggestions?
Second, how can I get Landscape mode with 16 cpi print from Lotus
1-2-3 version 1A?  The HP printer codes contain too many characters
to fit in the 1-2-3 Printer Setup.  I've tried running the Landscape 
setup first and then the 16 cpi setup, but all I get is Landscape
output with 12 cpi.  Any suggestions here?

Thanks for any help given.
